Distributed virtual reality

A method, comprising:

• creating, in a first virtual reality device having a processor and a memory, a virtual reality environment;
• providing a first stream of tracking data for the virtual reality environment to a first display device that is geographically proximate to the first virtual reality device;
• and
• providing the first stream of tracking data for the virtual reality environment to a network for a second virtual reality device, wherein the second virtual reality device is geographically remote from the first virtual reality device;
• and
• further wherein the tracking data includes six degrees of freedom tracking information represented by X,Y,Z Cartesian coordinates, thereby allowing a perspective in the virtual reality environment to be shared between the first virtual reality device and the second virtual reality device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium tangibly embodying computer executable instructions, the instructions including instructions for:

• creating, in a first virtual reality device having a processor and a memory, a virtual reality environment;
• providing a first stream of tracking data for the virtual reality environment to a first display device that is geographically proximate to the first virtual reality device;
• and
• providing the first stream of tracking data for the virtual reality environment to a network for a second virtual reality device, wherein the second virtual reality device is geographically remote from the first virtual reality device;
• and
• further wherein the tracking data includes six degrees of freedom tracking information represented by X,Y,Z Cartesian coordinates, thereby allowing a perspective in the virtual reality environment to be shared between the first virtual reality device and the second virtual reality device.
