RECONFIGURING REALITY USING A REALITY OVERLAY DEVICE
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- determining information related to an environment proximate to a wearable device;
receiving image information processed based at least on the determined information, the image information being representative of an entity; and
generating an image of the entity based on the processed image information as a non-transparent region of a lens of the wearable device to enable the entity to appear to be present in the environment to a user of the wearable device.

Abstract
Virtual entities are displayed alongside real world entities in a wearable reality overlay device worn by the user. Information related to an environment proximate to the wearable device is determined. For example, a position of the wearable device may be determined, a camera may capture an image of the environment, etc. Virtual entity image information representative of an entity desired to be virtually displayed is processed based on the determined information. An image of the entity is generated based on the processed image information as a non-transparent region of a lens of the wearable device, enabling the entity to appear to be present in the environment to the user. The image of the entity may conceal a real world entity that would otherwise be visible to the user through the wearable device. Other real world entities may be visible to the user through the wearable device.

15. A wearable device, comprising:
-
a position monitor configured to determine a position of the wearable device; a lens; and a display generator configured to receive image information processed based at least on the determined position, the image information being representative of an entity; wherein the display generator is configured to generate an image of the entity as a non-transparent region of the lens based on the processed image information to enable the entity to appear to be present to a user of the wearable device in an environment proximate to the wearable device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. A reality overlay image processing server, comprising:
-
a communication interface configured to receive position information from a wearable device; a storage that stores image information representative of an entity; and an entity image processor configured to process the image information representative of the entity based at least on the determined position; wherein the communication interface is configured to transmit the processed image information to the wearable device, the wearable device being configured to generate an image of the entity as a non-transparent region of a lens based on the processed image information to enable the entity to appear to be present to a user of the wearable device in an environment proximate to the wearable device. - View Dependent Claims (29)
