FUSING VIRTUAL CONTENT INTO REAL CONTENT
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for fusing virtual content into real content, comprising:
- creating a volumetric model of a space;
segmenting the model into objects;
identifying one or more of the objects including a first object; and
automatically displaying a virtual image over the first object on a display that allows actual direct viewing of at least a portion of the space through the display.

Abstract
A system that includes a head mounted display device and a processing unit connected to the head mounted display device is used to fuse virtual content into real content. In one embodiment, the processing unit is in communication with a hub computing device. The system creates a volumetric model of a space, segments the model into objects, identifies one or more of the objects including a first object, and displays a virtual image over the first object on a display (of the head mounted display) that allows actual direct viewing of at least a portion of the space through the display.

14. An apparatus for fusing virtual content into real content, comprising:
-
a head mounted display device, the head mounted display device comprises; a display that allows actual direct view of a first object through the display, an opacity filter aligned with the display so that light passing through the opacity filer also passes through the display, inertial sensors that sense orientation information for the head mounted display device, a first communication interface, and one or more control circuits in communication with the display, opacity filter, inertial sensors and the first communication interface; and a processing unit, the processing unit comprises a second communication interface that is in communication with the first communication interface and one or more control circuits in communication with the head mounted display device via the first communication interface and the second communication interface to automatically display a virtual image over the first object on the display. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method for fusing virtual content into real content, comprising:
-
creating a volumetric model of a space using one or more depth images; identifying a first object using the model; automatically tracking the first object as the first object moves; automatically determining a change in shape of the first object as it moves; and automatically displaying a virtual image over the first object on a display that allows actual direct viewing of at least a portion of the space through the display such that the first object is no longer visible. - View Dependent Claims (20)
