Reality to virtual reality portal for dual presence of devices

A computer storage medium storing computer-useable instructions that, when used by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a request from a remote computing device for identifying information that is associated with an electronic device located within a portal zone;
• providing the associated identifying information to the remote computing device;
• establishing a virtualized remote operation session with the remote computing device, wherein the remote computing device is configured to render a virtual object based on the provided identifying information, and bind an interactive virtual portion of the rendered virtual object to an interactive real portion of the corresponding electronic device;
• and
• processing incoming interaction data that is received from the remote computing device as a real interaction with the interactive real portion of the electronic device, wherein the remote computing device is configured to send the incoming interaction data to the electronic device via the established virtualized remote operation session.

A system for virtualizing electronic devices comprising:

• a client computing device having:
• a processor,
• a memory for providing computer-executable instructions to the processor, and
• a virtual object binding component to bind an interactive virtual portion of a virtual object to an interactive real portion of an identifiable host electronic device when it is determined to be within a portal zone.
