CONTEXT-AWARE HAZARD DETECTION USING WORLD-FACING CAMERAS IN VIRTUAL, AUGMENTED, AND MIXED REALITY (xR) APPLICATIONS

摘要

Systems and methods for providing context-aware hazard detection using world-facing cameras in virtual, augmented, and mixed reality (xR) applications are described herein. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include: a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to: receive an image during execution of a xR application displayed to a user wearing a Head-Mounted Display (HMD) coupled to the IHS; detect an object in the image; associate the object with a landmark selected among a plurality of landmarks usable by the xR application to determine a position of the HMD; and provide to the user, via the HMD, a safety instruction related to the object in response to a distance between the HMD and the selected landmark meeting a distance threshold.
