Peripersonal boundary-based augmented reality game environment

A method of providing an augmented reality game environment within a game space includes obtaining, by a processor, sensor data for the game space, determining, by the processor, a position of a player in the game space based on the sensor data, generating, by the processor, player image data of a peripersonal boundary of the player based on the determined position of the player for rendering a representation of the peripersonal boundary in the game space, the peripersonal boundary being disposed about, and spaced from, the determined position, obtaining, by the processor, player data for the player via an input modality, the player data being indicative of a player directive to modulate the peripersonal boundary, adjusting, by the processor, a size of the peripersonal boundary as a function of the player data, and updating, by the processor, the player image data based on the adjusted size of the peripersonal boundary.

Aiming display automation for head mounted display applications

A method for user interaction when gaming. The method including rendering a normal view of a virtual environment of a video game for display in an HMD of a user.
