Augmented and virtual reality

This invention describes a method for creating a virtual reality map. It involves taking a digital floorplan, displaying it to a user in a virtual environment, and letting them select a spot on the map to place an icon. The system then uses some image data to help correlate the icon's placement within the virtual map.

Why it matters: Since 2023, consumer VR headsets have integrated advanced spatial computing and passthrough cameras. This makes the claimed method of receiving and correlating image data with a virtual map much more seamless and powerful directly within the VR device.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
