Abstract
Virtual environments may be presented to a user with an inclusion of one or more applications, but many such techniques for integrating the applications with the virtual environment may exhibit disadvantages. For example, a two-dimensional 'flat' rendering of the application may require a loss of visual depth, and/or may appear inconsistent; an immersive presentation that is mutually exclusive with the presentation of the virtual environment may achieve very limited integration; and a holographic presentation may appear incongruous. Such techniques may also increase presentation latency, with noticeable and significant consequences. Instead, the virtual environment may define an application region, and may notify the application of the application region and a perspective of the user within the virtual environment. The application may present an application view that reflects the perspective of the user, and the virtual environment may present the application view within the application region of the virtual environment.
