US Patent 11521356 Systems and methods for a shared interactive environment

Systems and methods for maintaining a shared interactive environment include receiving, by a server, requests to register a first input device of a first user and a second input device of a second user with a shared interactive environment. The first input device may be for a first modality involving user input for an augmented reality (AR) environment, and the second input device may be for a second modality involving user input for a personal computer (PC) based virtual environment or a virtual reality (VR) environment. The server may register the first and second input device with the shared interactive environment. The server may receive inputs from a first adapter for the first modality and from a second adapter for the second modality. The inputs may be for the first and second user to use the shared interactive environment.
