Embodiments of the disclosure provided herein generally include a system and a method of configuring and/or controlling the transfer of information between two or more electronic devices due to the interaction of an electronic device and a host identifier signal generating system. Embodiments of the disclosure may include a system and a method of distributing useful information received by or contained within a memory of the electronic device based on the receipt of a host identifier signal. The electronic device may then perform one or more desirable functions or processes based the portable electronic device's interaction with the host identifier signal generating system. Some aspects of the invention may include an apparatus, method and/or one or more computing device software applications that are configured to more easily setup, configure and/or control the presentation, distribution, collection and/or analysis of program information residing in a first electronic device to a second electronic device based on the interaction of the first electronic device with the host identifier signal generating system.

Method and apparatus for transferring information between electronic devices

In certain embodiments, a sensing and tracking system detects objects, such as user input devices or peripherals, and user interactions with them. A representation of the objects and user interactions are then injected into the virtual reality environment. The representation can be an actual reality, augmented reality, virtual representation or any combination. For example, an actual keyboard can be injected, but with the keys pressed being enlarged and lighted.

Systems and methods for configuring a hub-centric virtual/augmented reality environment

In some embodiments, a system comprising one or more processors configured to track a location of an input device within a physical environment via a three-dimensional (3D) tracking system, and modify a tracking parameter of the 3D tracking system while tracking the location of the input device based on the determined location of the input device within the physical environment. The input device may be coupled to a virtual reality display system and tracking the location of the location of the input device can be used for interacting with the virtual reality display system.

Systems and methods for operating an input device in an augmented/virtual reality environment

Methods and systems for providing a mixed reality (MR) interaction are provided. In one example, the method comprises: capturing a first image of a user's appendage and a physical peripheral input device, wherein the user's appendage covers at least a part of the physical peripheral input device; performing a segmentation of the first image into a first region of pixels corresponding to the user's appendage, wherein a second region of pixels corresponds to the physical peripheral input device; generating a composite image from the first image based on rendering, in place of the second region of pixels, pixels representing a virtual peripheral input device, such that the virtual peripheral input device appears in the composite image as at a same spatial location as the physical peripheral input device and covered at least partially by the user's appendage; and displaying the composite image to the user.

Method and system for object segmentation in a mixed reality environment

In an embodiment there is provided a user interface device for interfacing a user with a computer, the computer comprising at least one processor to generate instructions for display of a graphical environment of a virtual reality simulation. The user interface device includes a sensor for detecting activation and/or a sensor for detecting proximity of a body part of the user (e.g., hand). At least partially based on detection by one of these sensors, a transition between virtual reality states is triggered.

Transition between virtual and augmented reality

Methods and systems for providing a mixed reality (MR) interaction are provided. In one example, a method comprises: capturing, at a first time and using a camera of a head-mounted display (HMD) of a user, a first image of a physical interaction of the user with a physical object; measuring a movement of the HMD with respect to the physical object between the first time and a second time; processing the first image based on the measurement of the movement of the HMD to generate a second image; generating, based on the second image, a composite image of a virtual interaction involving the user; and displaying, via the HMD and based on the composite image, the virtual interaction in place of the physical interaction to the user at the second time.

Method and system for mixed reality interaction with peripheral device

Systems and methods for a peripheral-centric augmented/virtual reality environment

A computer implemented method includes extracting one or more portions from a first video stream of a first physical environment; transmitting captured video data via a first communication link to one or more electronic display devices disposed within a second physical environment, wherein the captured video data includes the one or more extracted portions and the captured video data includes a preview portion that includes a first portion of a frame of the first video stream; and transmitting a second video stream of a second field of view of the first physical environment to at least one of the one or more electronic display devices disposed within the second physical environment via a second communication link, wherein the second video stream is generated in response to a selection of the preview portion of the captured video data made by a user located in the second physical environment.

Video conferencing system and related methods

Embodiments of the disclosure provided herein generally include a system and a method of configuring and/or controlling one or more electronic devices using a portable electronic device based on the interaction of the portable electronic device with a beacon signal generating system that is disposed at a desired location. Embodiments of the disclosure may include a system and a method of collecting and analyzing useful information received by the portable electronic device based on the receipt of a beacon signal. The portable electronic device may then perform one or more desirable functions or processes based the portable electronic device's interaction with the beacon signal generating system. Some aspects of the invention may include an apparatus, method and/or one or more computing device software applications that are configured to more easily setup, configure and/or reliably control an additional electronic device based on the interaction of the portable electronic device with the beacon signal generating system.

Method and apparatus for facilitating setup, discovery of capabilities and interaction of electronic devices

Embodiments of the invention are directed to input devices configured for use with computing devices. The present invention relates to methods and devices for establishing, maintaining and managing, wireless connections between an input device and one or more host computing devices running one of a plurality of operating systems. The input device may be configured to analyze data received from the host computing devices to automatically or manually determine an operating system running on the host computing devices and configure the input device for proper functionality with the determined operating system.
