US 12,225,086 B2 · Systems and methods for enabling communications in an extended reality environment

Abstract

Systems and methods are described herein for generating for display, at an extended reality (XR) device executing an application, an XR environment comprising an entity and associated with an XR session of a user profile. Execution of the application enables the XR device, while generating for display the XR environment, to transmit data to, and receive data from, a particular device using a first communication protocol, and transmit data to, and receive data from, the entity using a second communication protocol. Based on monitored activity of the user profile during the XR session, the XR device may be enabled to transmit data, received at the XR device from the entity using the second communication protocol, to the particular device using the first communication protocol, and transmit data, received at the XR device from the particular device using the first communication protocol, to the entity using the second communication protocol.

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method comprising:

generating for display, at an extended reality (XR) device executing an application, an XR environment comprising an entity, wherein the XR environment is associated with an XR session of a user profile, and the executing of the application enables the XR device, while generating for display the XR environment, to:
transmit data to, and receive data from, remote computing equipment;
and
transmit data to, and receive data from, the entity;
and
based on monitoring activity associated with the user profile during the XR session, determining to enable the XR device to:
transmit data, received at the XR device from the entity, to the remote computing equipment;
and
transmit data, received at the XR device from the remote computing equipment, to the entity;
wherein the monitoring the activity associated with the user profile during the XR session comprises determining that the XR device is proximate to the entity in the XR environment, while the XR device is transmitting data to, or receiving data from, the remote computing equipment.
