Abstract: The present invention provides devices, methods and systems for use with interactive equipment in a simulated or augmented environment, or in real world operations. The inventive devices, methods and systems allow for interactive operation equipment in a virtual or augmented reality environment while eliminating virtual drift of the operational equipment. The present invention further eliminates the need to reset a simulated environment to accommodate swapping out equipment, allowing a seamless simulation to provide an optimal virtual training environment. Finally, the present invention provides for a highly accurate operational equipment to be used in a virtual or augmented environment allowing for optimal training, while minimizing down time.
Abstract: The present invention provides for devices and methods for making and using an integrated rechargeable power supply and power management system for providing power to weapon mounted electronic devices. The inventive apparatus provides for a common power source for weapon attachments, that can be integrated into a weapon. These devices and methods provide for an easy swap of the power source in an active environment, and further includes power management and safety functions. The inventive devices and methods further provide for better ergonomics and improved weight/balance to enhance shooting skills, less physically taxing heft, and potentially save lives. Finally, the present invention is backwards compatible with present weapons.
Abstract: The present invention provides for systems and methods of transmitting and converting a landscape image to a portrait image for use in a virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) environment at a very high speed with negligible latency thus providing a seamless video feed to enhance the VR or AR environment to meet the demands of VR and AR head mounted displays. The present invention further provides for systems and methods for compositing and communicating video, audio, user data, and commands for VR and AR applications with stationary and moving participants. The present invention overcomes the unmet needs of the art by providing a wireless video processing which includes equipment that has a low power consumption, while providing a reliable and seamless virtual or simulated environment. The present invention further overcomes the unmet need by providing systems and methods to reduce the latency caused by image rotation.
