“The device looks not unlike a pair of goggles that display a cropped version of a larger media file. As the wearer moves his or her head, a gyroscope and accelerometer in the goggles adjust the crop of the media file, making it appear to the user as if they were in a theater-like experience,” Palmer reports.
“The patent also includes provisions for techniques to reduce eyestrain, determine when the user reaches the ‘edge’ of the media file, and zoom in and out,” Palmer reports.
