Location-based VR topological extrusion apparatus

A modular and scalable system configured to generate a topology platform for training, entertainment, gaming, living, working, acting, viewing, etc. The platform can have a plurality of movable columns that are extendable and retractable. In some embodiments, some of the columns can be retracted to allow users to walk on the columns while other columns can be extended to form a barrier (e.g., wall) or form an inanimate object (e.g., table). The system may be used in furniture to provide topologies for highly customized support structure designs to accommodate varying body shapes, sizes, and individual comfort levels. The system may be used to generate topologies for greenscreen film stages to provide post-production editing, compositing with actors, stuntmen, and video, etc. The platform can be configurable and re-configurable to change the objects and features of the topology and represent different or dynamic environments at any time.

11733772 · 2023-08-22 · ·

Systems and methods for providing a virtual window may include a projector, which projects an image upon a projection surface. The projection surface can be arranged at a distance of separation from a user. The system can further comprise a plurality of sensors forming a field of detection with respect to an area of space encompassing the distance of separation between the projection surface and the user. The plurality of sensors can capture position data for the user representing a current position of the user within the field of detection. The system can also include at least one processor rendering a computer simulated environment as the projected image, wherein the at least one processor processes the captured position data such for the user such that the computer simulated environment is generated in a perspective relative to the current position of the user within the field of detection.
