Abstract

Users can intuitively and non-obstructively obtain awareness of fellow collaborator views and/or statuses in an augmented reality environment. An interaction is detected between a first and second HMD. The detected interaction can cause the first HMD to request state information associated with the second HMD. The second HMD can process the request to generate a set of visual data as a response to the request. The second HMD can communicate the set of visual data to the first HMD, so that the first HMD can render the received set of visual data to be displayed concurrently with its own augmented view. Additional computer-generated object(s) can be positioned in accordance with a real-world or virtualized position of the second HMD, such that the now-visible state information associated with the second HMD does not obstruct a view of the first or second HMD's user.
