Title

(EN) INTELLIGENT KEYBOARD ATTACHMENT FOR MIXED REALITY INPUT

(FR) ACCESSOIRE DE CLAVIER INTELLIGENT POUR UNE ENTRÉE DE RÉALITÉ MIXTE

Abstract

(EN) Systems and methods for attaching a virtual input device to a virtual object in a mixed reality (MR) environment are provided. The system includes a memory, a processor communicatively coupled to the memory, and a display device. The display device is configured to display a MR environment provided by at least one application implemented by the processor. The mixed reality environment includes a virtual object corresponding to an application, and a virtual input device. The at least one application docks the virtual input device to the virtual object with an offset relative to the virtual object.

(FR) L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés permettant de fixer un dispositif d'entrée virtuel à un objet virtuel dans un environnement de réalité mixte (MR). Le système comprend une mémoire, un processeur couplé en communication à la mémoire, et un dispositif d'affichage. Le dispositif d'affichage est configuré pour afficher un environnement de MR fourni par au moins une application mise en œuvre par le processeur. L'environnement de réalité mixte comprend un objet virtuel correspondant à une application, et un dispositif d'entrée virtuel. La ou les applications amènent le dispositif d'entrée virtuel à l'objet virtuel avec un décalage par rapport à l'objet virtuel.
