Abstract
A multi-user virtual reality system for providing a virtual reality experience to a plurality of users in a body of water includes a reference system adapted for emitting and/or receiving signals. The multi-user virtual reality system includes equipment configured to be mounted to a first user in the body of water, wherein the equipment includes a first display unit and a first signal emitting or receiving system adapted for emitting and/or receiving signals. The multi-user virtual reality system includes equipment configured to be mounted to a second user in the body of water, wherein the equipment includes a second display unit and a second signal emitting or receiving system adapted for emitting and/or receiving signals. The multi-user virtual reality system includes a data processing system including one or more data processing units. The data processing system is configured for determining a position of the first user in the body of water based on at least one signal transmitted between the first signal emitting or receiving system and the reference system. The data processing system is configured for determining a position of the second user in the body of water based on at least one signal transmitted between the second signal emitting or receiving system and the reference system. The data processing system is configured for determining whether the second user in the body of water is within a first target regionrelative to the first user in the body of water. The data processing system is configured for instructing the first display unit to display virtual reality content to the first user in the body of water. If it is determined that the second user in the body of water is inside the first target region relative to the first user, the displayed virtual reality content includes a representation of the second user.
