Mixed reality system supporting virtual reality application and display method thereof

A mixed reality (MR) system supporting virtual reality (VR) applications, comprising:

• a MR headset;
• and
• a processing device, connected to the MR headset, wherein the processing device provides a first application programming interface (API) that runs VR contents and a second API that runs MR contents, wherein the second API is associated with the MR headset, and wherein the processing device is configured to:
• obtain a first VR content by the processing device;
• inform the first API about a display-related setting of the MR headset through the second API by the processing device;
• render first texture data corresponding to the first VR content according to the display-related setting through the first API by the processing device;
• create and send a share handle associated with the first texture data to the second API through the first API by the processing device;
• and
• display the first texture data on the MR headset through the second API by using the share handle by the processing device.
