Abstract: A method includes determining a customized action routine for a person to carry out in a virtual world, where the person is wearing a virtual reality (VR) headset. Objects associated with events from the routine are presented to the person in a virtual world via the VR headset; and aspects of the person's virtual interaction with the object in the virtual world are rendered on the VR headset. The person's virtual interactions with virtual objects is analyzed and used to determine, in real time, one or more next events for said routine.

Abstract: In a system in which a virtual reality (VR) user interacts with a virtual environment via a VR device, where the VR user is provided a view of the virtual environment via the VR device. A method includes tracking the VR user relative to at least one other user in a real-world environment; extracting an image of the VR user from the real-world environment; at least one other user obtaining information about the virtual environment; and presenting at least one other view corresponding to the VR user's virtual environment. Another view is presented as if seen from the location and/or perspective and/or orientation of another device relative to the VR user in the real environment.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes obtaining first data, including telemetry data and beatmap synchronization data from a user device such as a virtual reality (VR) headset. The telemetry data relates to actions and/or movements of a person wearing the user device in a real-world environment. The telemetry data and beatmap synchronization data are used to produce one more video segments of a virtual person in a virtual world environment. The video production may take place in the cloud, away from the user device. The video production may include post-production and visual effects. The video production may be higher quality and/or resolution than images displayed in real-time on the user device.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes running a training program for a user wearing a virtual reality (VR) headset; and, while running the training program: monitoring activity of the user; presenting video images in a display of the VR headset corresponding to the activity of the user; and based on said monitoring, modifying at least one aspect of said training program.

Abstract: Systems and methods for macro stereo time-lapse photography, producing a stereographic time-lapse digital video, and macro stereographic time-lapse digital videos. A method of producing a sequence of time-lapse stereographic images of a subject, by positioning a camera with a macro lens at a first position relative to the subject; using the camera to obtain a first stack of images of the subject from the first position; positioning the camera at a second position relative to the subject; using the camera to obtain a second stack of images of the subject from the second position; and storing the first stack of images and the second stack of images as a stack pair; and then selectively repeating.
