First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for operating a self-propelled device, the method comprising:
- controlling movement of the self-propelled device in a real-world environment;
interfacing with a second computing device that provides a virtual environment in order to cause the second computing device to render a virtual entity upon the virtual environment, the virtual entity corresponding to the self-propelled device moving in the real-world environment; and
displaying, from interfacing with the second computing device, the virtual environment on the mobile computing device through the second computing device.

Abstract
A method is disclosed for operating a mobile computing device. The method may include a communication link between the mobile computing device and a second computing device. The second computing device may provide a virtual environment for the mobile computing device. Furthermore, the mobile computing device may allow a user to control a self-propelled device, which may be rendered as a virtual entity upon the virtual environment.

21. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
-
enable user control movement of a self-propelled device in a real-world environment using a mobile computing device; interface with a second computing device that provides a virtual environment causing the second computing device to render a virtual entity upon the virtual environment corresponding to the self-propelled device in the real-world environment; and display the virtual environment on the mobile computing device through the second computing device. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24)
