  • Patent number: 10475246
    Abstract: A system configured to provide views of virtual content in an interactive space may comprise one or more of a light source, an optical element, one or more physical processor, non-transitory electronic storage, and/or other components. The optical element being configured to provide light emitted from the light source into one or more eyes of a user. The non-transitory electronic storage may be configured to store virtual content information defining virtual content. The virtual content may include one or more of a virtual gallery, one or more virtual objects, and/or other virtual content. The virtual gallery may comprise a set of supports. The virtual gallery may be configured to simulate removable engagement of individual virtual objects to individual supports.

  • Publication number: 20190180508
    Abstract: A system configured for providing views of virtual content in an augmented reality environment may comprise one or more of a light source, an optical element, one or more physical processor, non-transitory electronic storage, and/or other components. The light source may be configured to emit light. The optical element being configured to reflect light emitted from the light source into one or more eyes of a user. The non-transitory electronic storage may be configured to store virtual content information defining virtual content. The virtual content may include one or more of an annular dock, one or more virtual objects, and/or other virtual content. The annular dock may comprise a set of sockets. The annular dock may be configured to simulate removable engagement of individual virtual objects to individual sockets. The light source may be controlled to generate views of the annular dock to be perceived as surrounding the user.

  • Patent number: 10255727
    Abstract: A system configured to provide effects for virtual content in an interactive space may comprise one or more of a headset, one or more image-forming components, one or more physical processors, and/or other components. An image forming virtual object may be presented to the user via the one or more image-forming components. The virtual object may be perceived as being present in the real world. A user may utilize a virtual tool to apply an exploder effect and/or other effect. The virtual tool providing the exploder effect may take the form of a rod-shaped object forming a wand. The virtual tool may be inserted into the virtual object. the virtual tool may be drawn away from the virtual object to cause the virtual object to achieve an exploded view state.

  • Patent number: 9990872
    Abstract: A system configured for providing views of virtual content in an augmented reality environment may comprise one or more of a first display, a second display, an optical element, one or more processors, and/or other components. The first display and second display may be separated by a separation distance. The first display and second display may be arranged such that rays of light emitted from pixels of the first display may travel through the second display, then reflect off the optical element and into a user's eyes. A three-dimensional light field perceived with a user's field-of-view may be generated. Distances of the first display and/or second display to the optical element may impact a perceived range of the three-dimensional light field. The separation distance may impact a perceived depth of the three-dimensional light field and/or a resolution of virtual content perceived with the three-dimensional light field.
