Abstract:
A method for providing a remote user with an experience in an environment, comprising building a three-dimensional (3D) model of the environment, capturing one or more video feeds of at least a portion of the environment using one or more cameras in the environment, mapping the one or more video feeds onto one or more planes in the 3D model, providing a view of the mapped one or more video feeds on the one or more planes in the 3D model through a display device viewed by the remote user, capturing a gestural input from the remote user, and applying the gestural input to the portion of the environment.
