Abstract

See full text

A method for providing a user with an improved understanding of an XR space in which the user is playing a video game includes: continuously tracking a user-controlled character in the video game; accessing a previously generated spatial mapping mesh (SMM) of surfaces of real elements present in the XR space, with corresponding positions and dimensions; analyzing information from the SMM on one or more real surfaces within a predetermined distance of the user-controlled character; carrying out an action based on a tracked position of the user-controlled character and, at least in part, on a result of the analysis; and making a consequence of the action visible to the user.
