Consistent with disclosed embodiments, systems, methods, and computer readable media including instructions for implementing hybrid virtual keys in an extended reality environment are disclosed. Embodiments may include a processor to receive signals from a touch-sensitive surface, wherein a wearable extended reality appliance may virtually project a plurality of virtual activatable elements on the touch-sensitive surface. The plurality of virtual activatable elements virtually projected on the touch-sensitive surface may be a proper sub-set of a group of virtual activatable elements, based on the action of a user. The processor may receive touch inputs from the user via the touch-sensitive surface and identify one of the plurality of virtual activatable elements. The processor may cause a change in virtual content based on the identified virtual activatable element.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media containing instructions for causing at least one processor to perform operations for changing display of virtual content based on temperature are provided. In one implementation, the processor is configured to perform operations comprising displaying virtual content via a wearable extended reality appliance, wherein during displaying of the virtual content, heat is generated by at least one component of the wearable extended reality appliance; receiving information indicative of a temperature associated with the wearable extended reality appliance; determining a need to change display settings of the virtual content based on the received information; and based on the determination, changing the display settings of the virtual content to achieve a target temperature.

A head-mounted display, a display control method, and a program that facilitate a user to understand proximity between the user and an object around the user are provided. A display block (36) is arranged in front of the eyes of the user wearing a HMD (12). In accordance with proximity between the user and an object around the user, the HMD (12) controls the display block (36) so as to have the user visually recognize a forward direction of the display block (36).

A protector for a welder includes a main body configured to cover a face and eyes of an operator; a darkening filter arranged in a front side of the main body and configured to protect the eyes of the operator; an image generator arranged in the main body and configured to generate image light; an optical path bender configured to change a proceeding path of the image light; and a combiner configured to generate a virtual image on an outer portion of the main body by projecting the image light, and arranged adjacent to the darkening filter.

The present invention relates to a pedestrian device and a traffic safety assistance method which can effectively and properly support pedestrian's safety confirmation by utilizing vehicle-to-pedestrian communications and an AR device. A pedestrian device of the present invention includes: an ITS communication device 21 (pedestrian-vehicle communication device) configured to perform vehicle-to-pedestrian communications with an in-vehicle terminal 2; a processor 32 configured to determine if there is a risk of collision based on information transmitted to and received from the in-vehicle device, and control provision of an alert to a user of the pedestrian device; and an AR display 26 for displaying a virtual object overlaid on a real space which can be seen by the user, wherein the processor controls display of the virtual object (virtual terminal) on the AR display as an alert operation to provide an alert to the user.

A head-mounted display, a display control method, and a program that facilitate a user to understand proximity between the user and an object around the user are provided. A display block (36) is arranged in front of the eyes of the user wearing a HMD (12). In accordance with proximity between the user and an object around the user, the HMD (12) controls the display block (36) so as to have the user visually recognize a forward direction of the display block (36).

An emergency vision apparatus comprises an inflatable enclosure to enable a user to see through the enclosure when expanded and observe a source of information at a distal end of the enclosure while smoke or other particulate matter is in the environment. The enclosure includes an opening configured for insertion of a user's hand into the interior of the enclosure to allow the user to operate a touch sensitive screen or hardware visible through the second clear member disposed toward a user and a sealable closure for closing the opening and sealing the opening around the user's hand. The sealable closure includes flexible first and second sheets covering the opening, the first and second sheets including respective first and second slits disposed transversely to each other, the first and second slits being configured to allow insertion of the user's hand into the interior of the enclosure.

The present disclosure proposes an information processing device, an information processing method and a program, which are capable of, while virtual reality content is displayed, informing a user of positional relationship between the user and a boundary region of a space in which the user can act in the real space. The information processing device comprising: an obtaining unit that obtains body information of a user; and an output control unit that, while virtual reality content is displayed by a display unit, causes a sign indicating positional relationship between the user and a boundary region of a second real space in which the user can act in a first real space in which the user is located, the boundary region having been determined on the basis of the body information of the user, to be displayed with the sign superimposed on the content.

In this patent, an advanced head display unit designed primarily for fire fighters is disclosed. The advanced augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR) head display unit improves coordination between teammates through eye tracking coupled with augmented reality features. This allows one fire fighter to know where another fire fighter is looking and helps coordinate tasks by dividing the scene into sectors and visibly marking each sector. Further, this system helps determine where to hose with a smart target system. Further, multiple sensors are utilized together to triangulate the location of a victim's voice. Additional advantages are also disclosed above.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media containing instructions for causing at least one processor to perform operations for integrating a moveable input device with a virtual display projected via a wearable extended reality appliance. In one implementation, the processor is configured to perform operations comprising receiving motion signals associated with the moveable input device, the motion signals reflecting physical movement; outputting during a first time period, first display signals to the reality appliance, the first display signals being configured to cause the wearable extended reality appliance to virtually present content in a first orientation; outputting during a second time period, second display signals to the wearable extended reality appliance, the second display signals being configured to cause the wearable extended reality appliance to virtually present the content in a second orientation; and switching between the output of the first display signals and the output of the second display signals.
