Abstract: A system and method for operating a keyboard and wearable extended reality appliance combination to control a virtual display are disclosed. The system may include a processor configured to receive, from a first hand-position sensor associated with the wearable extended reality appliance, first signals representing first hand-movements; receive, from a second hand-position sensor associated with the keyboard, second signals representing second hand-movements, wherein the second hand-movements include actions other than interactions with a feedback component; and control the virtual display based on the first signals and the second signals.
Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable media are provided for tying virtual whiteboards to physical spaces. In one implementation, the computer-readable medium includes instructions to cause a processor to receive wirelessly, an indication of a location of a first wearable extended reality appliance; perform a lookup to determine that the location of the first wearable extended reality appliance corresponds to a location of a particular virtual whiteboard; transmit to the first wearable extended reality appliance, data corresponding to content of the particular virtual whiteboard; receive, during a first time period, virtual content added by a first user; receive wirelessly at a second time period an indication that a second wearable extended reality appliance is in the location of the particular virtual whiteboard; and transmit to the second wearable extended reality appliance, data corresponding to the content and the added content of the particular virtual whiteboard.
Abstract: A method for tying a virtual speaker to a physical space. A first user with a first wearable extended reality appliance enters an area associated with a virtual speaker. First sounds are transmitted from the virtual speaker to the first wearable extended reality appliance. The first user hears the first sounds at first settings of the virtual speaker. The first user changes the settings of the virtual speaker to second settings. Second sounds are transmitted from the virtual speaker to the first wearable extended reality appliance, such that the first user hears the second sounds at the second settings. After the first user leaves the area, a second user with a second wearable extended reality appliance enters the area. Third sounds are transmitted from the virtual speaker to the second wearable extended reality appliance, such that the second user hears the third sounds at the second settings.
