Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods disclosed herein represent existing photo or video content within computer generated reality (CGR) environments. In some implementations, a representation of an existing photo or video is positioned within a CGR environment based on the position of the camera of the existing photo/video at the time the existing photo or video was captured. For example, a user experiencing CGR while walking along a hiking trail may see a floating representation of a photo that the user took on his or her last trip on that hiking trail. The representation may be positioned and oriented in the same position and orientation that the camera was positioned and oriented in when the photo was first captured, e.g., 5 feet above the ground, three feet north of the hiking trail welcome sign. The representation may be a version of the image itself or provide information about the image.
