LOCATION BASED SKINS FOR MIXED REALITY DISPLAYS
First Claim
1. One or more processor-readable storage media having instructions encoded thereon for causing one or more processors to execute a method for displaying a location-based skin by a see-through, mixed reality display device system, the method comprising:
- transmitting location identifier data indicating presence in a location to a skin providing computer system;
receiving a skin associated with the location from the skin providing computer system, the skin including display data for a virtual object in the location; and
responsive to the skin being authenticated, displaying the skin in accordance with skin display parameters and user settings while the display device is present in the location.

Abstract
The technology provides embodiments for providing a location-based skin for a see-through, mixed reality display device system. In many embodiments, a location-based skin includes a virtual object viewable by a see-through, mixed reality display device system which has been detected in a specific location. Some location-based skins implement an ambient effect. The see-through, mixed reality display device system is detected to be present in a location and receives and displays a skin while in the location in accordance with user settings. User data may be uploaded and displayed in a skin in accordance with user settings. A location may be a physical space at a fixed position and may also be a space defined relative to a position of a real object, for example, another see-through, mixed reality display device system. Furthermore, a location may be a location within another location.

16. A system for providing a location-based skin to a see-through, mixed reality display device system comprising:
-
a computer system comprising one or more processors and a memory accessible by the one or more processors, the computer system being communicatively coupled via a network to the see-through mixed reality display device system; the memory storing display data of one or more skins in a format which the see-through, mixed reality display device system can process for outputting the skin, the one or more skins including at least one skin for generating image data of a virtual object at a position in a location when the position is in a user field of view of the see-through, mixed reality display device system; the computer system comprising one or more sensors for detecting a presence of the see-through, mixed reality display device system in the location; and the one or more processors for sending the one or more skins to the see-through, mixed reality display device system responsive to detecting the presence of the display device system in the location.
