According to an aspect of the disclosure, a method for displaying content on a display of an electronic device comprises determining, based on information about the content, a first region of the display on which a first portion of the content is to be displayed; obtaining an angle between the first region and a second region of the display, the second region being distinguished from the first region; generating, based on the angle and a location of a user, correction content corresponding to a second portion of the content; and displaying the first portion on the first region, and displaying the correction content on the second region.

Method and apparatus for displaying content on display

A UE includes a communication unit, a display, at least one sensor, and a processor. The communication unit receives video from a server and the display renders a portion of the video. The sensor determines a pitch and a yaw of the portion of the video and a processor generates metadata that includes the pitch and the yaw.

Virtual reality experience sharing

A method is provided for navigating a 360-degree video. The method includes displaying a portion of the 360-degree video on a display. The method also includes displaying a graphical indicator overlaid on the 360-degree video. The graphical indicator represents a plurality of viewing directions within the 360-degree video. The graphical indicator includes at least one marker identifying a first viewing direction corresponding to the portion of the 360-degree video. The method also includes receiving an input at a position along the graphical indicator corresponding to a second viewing direction. The method also includes displaying another portion of the 360-degree video on the display, the other portion corresponding to the second viewing direction.

System and method for 360-degree video navigation

A video processing unit and method for region adaptive smoothing. The image processing unit includes a memory and one or more processors. The one or processors are operably connected to the memory and configured to stitch together a plurality of video frames into a plurality of equirectangular mapped frames of a video. The one or processors are configured to define a top region and a bottom region for each of the equirectangular mapped frames of the video; perform a smoothing process on the top region and the bottom region for each of the equirectangular mapped frames of the video; and encode the smoothed equirectangular mapped frames of the video.

Coding of 360 degree videos using region adaptive smoothing

A head-mounted display (HMD) system includes a head-mounted frame that encases a portable electronic device (PED) that includes a touch-less sensor, and the PED. The frame includes: a front slot to hold the PED and maintain contact with the PED's display face; an entry via dimensioned to prevent blockage of the sensor's field of view; and a light turning element positioned to redirect the sensor's field of view through an exit via in the frame and into open space outside of the frame. The PED includes: the sensor to detect a touch-less gesture; an image display to display image content on the PED's front display face; and processing circuitry configured to change modes from handheld mode to HMD operation mode based on a determination that the PED is encased by the frame and to select the image content based on input signals received from the sensor and the mode.

Sensor based UI in HMD incorporating light turning element

A method is provided for creating a single interactive video file. The method includes receiving a selection of a plurality of 360-degree videos including a first 360-degree video and a second 360-degree video. The method also includes linking the first 360-degree video to the second 360-degree video to enable transitioning between the first 360-degree video and the second 360-degree video. The method also includes compiling the plurality of 360-degree videos into the single interactive file. The single interactive video file includes an index used to identify the second 360-degree video within the single interactive video file when the link is executed.

Display screen or portion thereof including a graphical user interface

A method for operating a list in a mobile terminal is disclosed. An example method includes receiving a scene to display corresponding to a user performing an operation on the mobile terminal, capturing an image of the current environment from a camera of the mobile terminal while the user is performing the operation, extracting information from the captured image, processing the extracted information, rendering a display screen according to the received scene and according to the extracted information, and displaying the rendered display screen during the operation.

Illuminating a virtual environment with camera light data

A method, system and computer-readable medium for providing feedback effects for an image. The method includes identifying one or more features in an area of the image. The method also includes mapping the one or more identified features to at least one of multiple modalities of feedback effects. Additionally, the method includes generating parameters for feedback effect output and storing the generated parameters in association with the image such that, in response to coordinates of an input of a user corresponding to the area of the image, a user interface associated with the image is configured to provide at least one of the multiple modalities of feedback effects to the user. The multiple modalities of feedback effects include one or more visual feedback effects, one or more haptic feedback effects and one or more audio feedback effects.
