Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product provide the user of an immersive user interface with additional information beyond that provided by the virtual reality scene that is displayed via the immersive user interface. In the context of a method, a direction and orientation of a user of an immersive user interface are determined. The method also causes a virtual reality scene to be displayed via the immersive user interface based upon the direction and orientation of the user. The method further causes an image, different from the virtual reality scene, to be presented within a view window of the immersive user interface concurrent with display of the virtual reality scene. The image within the view window therefore provides additional imagery to the user, such as an image that is external to the virtual reality scene and/or an image of a different portion of the virtual reality scene.
