A computer-implemented method for using a video capture device to alleviate motion sickness via an augmented display for a passenger , the method comprising: receiving , from a video capture device of a vehicle , video data of a view outside of the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion; displaying , on a display device for a passenger of the vehicle , a request for a mode of display of the video data, the mode of displaying including a passive video mode and an active video mode ; receiving , from the passenger , a selection of the mode of display; displaying, on the display device for the passenger , the video data as a transparent background of a desktop of the display device when the passive video mode is selected; analyzing, when the active video mode is selected, video data of the video capture device of the view outside of the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion to identify at least one target object in the video data representing a real object in the view outside of the vehicle ; displaying , on the display device for the passenger when the active video mode is selected, the video data including a menu , the menu including a plurality of selectable icons to interact with the identified at least one target object in the video data wherein the plurality of selectable icons are based on at least one of the identified real object and the analyzed video data; and displaying , on the display device for the passenger when the active video mode is selected, augment video data that includes at least one virtual object on or around the identified real object based on a selection of a first selectable icon of the plurality of selectable icons , wherein the at least one virtual object includes one or more of i) walls, ii) pot holes, iii) oil spills, iv) slime, and v) simulated objects in which at least one of the vehicle, a virtual vehicle, and a neighboring vehicle interacts. receiving , from a video capture device of a vehicle , video data of a view outside of the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion; displaying , on a display device for a passenger of the vehicle , a request for a mode of display of the video data, the mode of displaying including a passive video mode and an active video mode ; receiving , from the passenger , a selection of the mode of display; displaying, on the display device for the passenger , the video data as a transparent background of a desktop of the display device when the passive video mode is selected; analyzing, when the active video mode is selected, video data of the video capture device of the view outside of the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion to identify at least one target object in the video data representing a real object in the view outside of the vehicle ; displaying , on the display device for the passenger when the active video mode is selected, the video data including a menu , the menu including a plurality of selectable icons to interact with the identified at least one target object in the video data wherein the plurality of selectable icons are based on at least one of the identified real object and the analyzed video data; and displaying , on the display device for the passenger when the active video mode is selected, augment video data that includes at least one virtual object on or around the identified real object based on a selection of a first selectable icon of the plurality of selectable icons , wherein the at least one virtual object includes one or more of i) walls, ii) pot holes, iii) oil spills, iv) slime, and v) simulated objects in which at least one of the vehicle, a virtual vehicle, and a neighboring vehicle interacts. <EOS>
