Abstract

Some examples of the disclosure are directed to systems and methods for communicating image sensor data to a computer system using one or more media links that allow for image sensor data to be displayed within a three-dimensional environment. In some examples, while presenting a three-dimensional environment that includes an electronic device that is communicatively coupled to an image sensor (e.g., a camera, or some other imaging device) within the three-dimensional environment, the electronic device utilizes a visual code displayed on the electronic device to establish a communication link with the image sensor receiving an indication to display image sensor data from the image sensor that is communicatively coupled to the electronic device. In some examples, while presenting a three-dimensional environment that includes a first pre-defined location within the three-dimensional environment, the electronic device facilitates the user to choose an image sensor to display at the pre-defined location.
