Abstract

Devices, methods, systems, and media are described for providing an extended screen distributed user interface in an augmented reality environment. GUI layout information for laying out a conventional 2D GUI is processed in order to generate an extended screen DUI for display partially on a 2D display device and partially on one or more virtual screens of an AR environment viewed using an AR display device, such as a head mounted display. GUI elements are laid out in the DUI based on a primary modality of the GUI element (input or output), and/or based on spatial dependencies between GUI elements encoded in the GUI layout information. Methods for switching focus between two software application instances displayed in the DUI are also disclosed.
