  • PROCESSES SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVING VIRTUAL AND AUGMENTED REALITY APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20220303588
    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.
