Abstract
A head mounted display (HMD) device is provided. The HMD has a display panel, a depth or distance sensor to measure distances between the HMD and a real object. The HMD device sets a close transition boundary distance (CTBD) between the HMD and a close transition boundary (CTB). A far transition boundary distance (FTBD) is set between the HMD and a far transition boundary (FTB). The CTBD is less than the FTBD. As a real object that has associated near and far virtual content moves nearer to the HMD device and crosses the CTB, the virtual content transitions to near virtual content for viewing on the HMD. As the real object moves away from the HMD and crosses the FTB, the virtual content transitions to the far virtual content for viewing on the HMD.
