US Patent 9330502 Mixed reality simulation methods and systems

Mixed reality simulation in general, and more specifically to mixed reality simulation devices and systems for training purposes, for example in the medical field, may be provided. For example, a mixed reality simulation method for rendering on a display a mixed reality scenario of a virtual environment adapted to a physical environment, may comprise acquiring, with a sensor, a position of a physical environment object; identifying a mismatch between a physical environment surface and a virtual environment surface, the mismatch depending on the physical environment object position and a mixed reality scenario parameter; and computing a mapping displacement for a virtual environment surface based on the identified mismatch.
