Abstract

See full text

An HMD device renders a virtual reality environment in which areas of the real world are masked out so that real world objects such as computer monitors, doors, people, faces, and the like appear visible to the device user and no holographic or virtual reality content is rendered over the visible objects. The HMD device includes a sensor package to support application of surface reconstruction techniques to dynamically detect edges and surfaces of the real world objects and keep objects visible on the display as the user changes position or head pose or when the real world objects move or their positions are changed. The HMD device can expose controls to enable the user to select which real world objects are visible in the virtual reality environment.
