Abstract
Movement data characterizing the movement of a vehicle in which electronic smartglasses are used, are sent by a portable apparatus from a data output to the electronic smartglasses for reducing simulator-sickness-induced impairments. The electronic smartglasses display data taking into account the movement data.
Claims15
A portable apparatus for reducing simulator-sickness-induced impairments when using electronic smartglasses in a vehicle having a receptacle, comprising:
- an enclosure having a substantially cylindrical shape with a variable external width region, controllable by a user to any fixed width, between maximum and minimum achievable widths, while the enclosure is stationary within the receptacle, to resist removal of the portable apparatus from the receptacle;
- a sensor device configured to capture at least some movement data characterizing movement of the vehicle;
- and
- a data output configured to transmit the movement data characterizing the movement of the vehicle to the electronic smartglasses.
A portable apparatus for reducing simulator-sickness-induced impairments when using electronic smartglasses in a vehicle having a drinks holder, comprising:
- an enclosure having a mechanism configured to increase a variable width region of the enclosure, adjustable by a user relative to at least one dimension of the receptacle while the enclosure is stationary, thereby wedging the portable apparatus in the drinks holder;
- and
- a data output configured to transmit movement data characterizing movement of the vehicle to the electronic smartglasses.
A display system for a vehicle having a receptacle providing a drinks holder, comprising:
- at least one set of electronic smartglasses configured to display at least one of a virtual reality and an augmented reality, including contents corresponding to movement of the vehicle based on movement data;
- a sensor device configured to capture at least some of the movement data characterizing the movement of the vehicle;
- and
- a portable apparatus, configured to reduce simulator-sickness-induced symptoms of a user of the electronic smartglasses in the vehicle, by transmitting the movement data to the electronic smartglasses, the portable apparatus having an enclosure with a substantially cylindrical shape having a variable external width region, controllable by a user to any fixed width, between maximum and minimum achievable widths, while the enclosure is stationary within the receptacle, to resist removal of the portable apparatus from the receptacle.
