Abstract

A method, system, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing a shared vehicle experience. The method includes capturing an exterior video stream that depicts an exterior environment of a vehicle, and receiving remote user information indicating a bodily movement of a remote user. The method further includes generating and displaying an augmented video stream comprising a dynamic avatar representing the remote user as a virtual passenger, the dynamic avatar being updated based on the remote user information while the augmented video stream is being displayed in the vehicle. At least a portion of the exterior video stream and occupant information are sent to a computer device that causes, based on the at least a portion of the exterior video stream and the occupant information, a display device of the remote user to output an additional augmented video stream that provides the remote user with an experience of being in the vehicle.
