Abstract:
Innovations for interactive computer displays (e.g., virtual reality systems) are presented. Motion sensor data is obtained from a motion sensor mounted to a user's head. The motion sensor data is analyzed to determine user movement. A display is updated based on the user movement and output to a display device. Particular embodiments enable a user's natural movement styles to create movement in a virtual reality environment in a highly immersive manner. Further, certain embodiments allow for the user to walk in place (or run in place) and translate that motion into suitable, realistic virtual velocity values for use in a VR environment.

Claim (Index 14):
A method for controlling a virtual reality display, comprising:\n by computing hardware configured to compute virtual reality velocity values used in real-time rendering of a virtual environment via a virtual reality display device:\n receiving an indication of a first step and an indication of a second step, the indications being based on movements detected by an accelerometer satisfying a step threshold; \n computing a first step-triggered virtual reality velocity value based on a time difference between the first step and the second step; \n incrementally reducing the first step-triggered virtual reality velocity value before receiving an indication of a third step; \n receiving an indication of a third step, the indication of the third step also being based on movements detected by the accelerometer satisfying the step threshold; and \n computing a second step-triggered virtual reality velocity value based on a time difference between the second step and the third step.
