Abstract

Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that are capable of executing an application on a head-mounted device (HMD) having a first image sensor in a first image sensor configuration. In some implementations, the application is configured for execution on a device including a second image sensor in a second image sensor configuration different than the first image sensor configuration. In some implementations, a request is received from the executing application for image data from the second image sensor. Responsive to the request at the HMD, a pose of a virtual image sensor is determined, image data is generated based on the pose of the virtual image sensor, and the generated image data is provided to the executing application.
