Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for rendering images on a head mounted display (HMD). One method includes operations for tracking, with one or more first cameras inside the HMD, the gaze of a user and for tracking motion of the HMD. The motion of the HMD is tracked by analyzing images of the HMD taken with a second camera that is not in the HMD. Further, the method includes an operation for predicting the motion of the gaze of the user based on the gaze and the motion of the HMD. Rendering policies for a plurality of regions, defined on a view rendered by the HMD, are determined based on the predicted motion of the gaze. The images are rendered on the view based on the rendering policies.

Abstract: A head mounted display (HMD) is provided. The HMD includes a housing and a view port of the housing. The view port has a screen for rendering an augmented reality scene. Included is a communications device for exchanging streaming data over a network. A depth camera integrated in the housing and oriented to capture depth data of an environment in front of the housing is included. A processor is configured to use the depth data captured by the depth camera to identify spatial positioning of real objects in the environment. A real object is rendered into the augmented reality scene, and the real object is tracked such that insertion of augmented reality objects are placed in coordination with movements of the real object shown in the augmented reality scene. The real object captured by the depth camera is the environment where a user wearing the HMD is located.

Abstract: Computer implemented methods, apparatus and systems for enabling interactive interfacing with a computer game program are provided. One system includes an input device to accept and transmit user input to the computer game program. The system also includes a computing device for executing the computer game having an interactive component that is responsive to the user input. The computing devices is in communication with the input device for receiving and processing the user input. The computer device is also configured to apply a gearing parameter during processing of the user input, wherein the applied gearing parameter defines a scaling ratio between the user input and a rate at which the interactive component responds during execution of the computer game.
