Abstract:
Described are examples for capturing one or more real world images for display with one or more computer-generated images (e.g., holograms). One or more computer-generated images for overlaying over one or more real world images can be received, and a depth for overlaying at least one of the computer-generated images over the one or more real world images can be determined. A lens of a camera can be focused based on this depth, and the one or more real world images can be captured via the camera with the lens focused based on the depth. The one or more real world images can be provided as one or more mixed reality images with the one or more computer-generated images overlaid on the one or more real world images, such that the image is focused on objects near the one or more computer-generated images.
