Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media which retarget 2D screencast video tutorials into an active VR host application. VR-embedded widgets can render on top of a VR host application environment while the VR host application is active. Thus, VR-embedded widgets can provide various interactive tutorial interfaces directly inside the environment of the VR host application. For example, VR-embedded widgets can present external video content, related information, and corresponding interfaces directly in a VR painting environment, so a user can simultaneously access external video (e.g., screencast video tutorials) and a VR painting. Possible VR-embedded widgets include a VR-embedded video player overlay widget, a perspective thumbnail overlay widget (e.g., a user-view thumbnail overlay, an instructor-view thumbnail overlay, etc.), an awareness overlay widget, a tutorial steps overlay widget, and/or a controller overlay widget, among others.
