XR Preferred Movement Along Planes - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18335364 Titled 'XR Preferred Movement Along Planes'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes a method for presenting a virtual object in a real environment using a first device. The process involves obtaining two geometric representations of a physical surface in the real environment, determining an initialization location on the surface for the virtual object, and obtaining the normals (directions perpendicular to the surface) for both representations at the initialization location. Finally, the virtual object is rendered at the initialization location based on the obtained normals.
Original Abstract Submitted
Presenting a virtual object includes obtaining, by a first device, a first geometric representation and a second geometric representation corresponding to a physical surface in a real environment, determining an initialization location on the first physical surface for a virtual object, obtaining a first normal for the first representation and a second normal for the second representation at the initialization location, and rendering the virtual object at the initialization location based on the first normal and the second normal.
