System and method for integrating multiple virtual rendering systems to provide an augmented reality

A rendering device for displaying a composite render, rendering device comprising:

• a processor configured to:
• obtain a first virtual environment data, including one or more first virtual objects, from a first virtual rendering system using a first camera view;
• obtain a second virtual environment data, including one or more second virtual objects, from a second virtual rendering system using a second camera view;
• create the composite render by combining the one or more first virtual objects and the one or more second virtual objects to provide a virtual scene, wherein the creating applies a display priority algorithm when a first position of the one or more of the first virtual objects is similar to a second position of the one or more of the second virtual objects;
• output the composite render to a display;
• update, after the outputting, the first virtual environment data from the first virtual rendering system at a first update rate;
• update the second virtual environment data from the second virtual rendering system at a second update rate;
• re-create the composite render using the updated first virtual environment data and the updated second virtual environment data;
• and
• output the re-created composite render to the display.

A computer software program stored in a computer readable memory for displaying a composite render, wherein when the computer software program is executed by a processor, the computer software program performs a method comprising:

• obtaining a first virtual environment data, including one or more first virtual objects, from a first virtual rendering system using a first camera view;
• obtaining a second virtual environment data, including one or more second virtual objects, from a second virtual rendering system using a second camera view;
• creating the composite render by combining the one or more first virtual objects and the one or more second virtual objects to provide a virtual scene, wherein the creating applies a display priority algorithm when a first position of the one or more of the first virtual objects is similar to a second position of the one or more of the second virtual objects;
• and
• outputting the composite render to a display;
• updating, after the outputting, the first virtual environment data from the first virtual rendering system at a first update rate:
• updating the second virtual environment data from the second virtual rendering system at a second update rate;
• re-creating the composite render using the updated first virtual environment data and the updated second virtual environment data;
• and
• outputting the re-created composite render to the display.
