Abstract: A system and method for facilitating tracking of interactions with a plurality of content types within a digital reality. One or more users enter a public digital zone where content from one or more holographic applications is available for interaction through digital reality devices. Interactions include seeing, looking at, clicking on, engaging with, and immersing into the digital content from the one or more holographic applications. Potential outputs of these interactions include transactions, switching to other holographic applications, or completely exiting the holographic application. Each of these interactions is continuously tracked by a telemetry and tracking cloud server communicatively connected to a cloud server and holographic application. Cloud servers of each public digital zone connect to cloud servers of other public digital zones, enabling users to seamlessly access holographic applications located in other public digital zones.

Abstract: A system and method for allowing a smooth transition between a public digital reality experience into a private digital reality experience. A cloud server delimitates a public digital zone where interactions with digital reality applications stored in the cloud server and corresponding digital content are viewable to all users in the public digital zone. When users access the public digital zone, the cloud server detects the users and provides digital content from the digital reality to the users via digital reality devices. Upon reaching predetermined levels of interaction, users may access a personal digital reality view, whereby a smooth transition from a public to a personal digital reality experience takes place, prompting a specific portion of computing power from the cloud server to be dedicated to the specific user to enable personal interactions with the digital content.
