  • Multi-screen interactions in virtual and augmented reality
    Patent number: 10832481
    Abstract: Techniques for providing multi-screen interaction in an interactive application. A primary device establishes an application session. The application session includes a virtual environment relating to a physical environment in which the primary user device is located. The primary user device is configured to display a graphical image relating to a primary virtual camera view of the virtual environment. A secondary virtual camera view of the virtual environment, relating to the primary virtual camera view, is determined. The primary user device transmits image data relating to the secondary virtual camera view from the primary user device to a secondary user device, which is configured to display a graphical image based on the image data. Responsive to receiving an interaction request from the secondary user device, the primary user device controls the application session based on the interaction request.
