Electronic device and method of operating electronic device in virtual reality
Provided is an electronic device comprising: a memory storing instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to: detect at least one event of the electronic device operating in a first mechanism; in response to the detected at least one event, operate in a second mechanism; and transmitting screen information of the electronic device to another electronic device for displaying a virtual reality screen at the other electronic device based on the screen information.
1. An electronic device comprising:
a memory storing instructions; and
at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to:
detect at least one event of another electronic device operating in a first mechanism;
in response to the detected at least one event, cause the other electronic device to operate in a second mechanism;
receive screen information of the other electronic device; and
display a virtual reality screen based on the screen information.
2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the second mechanism comprises a hovering input mechanism.
3. The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the first mechanism excludes the hover input mechanism.
4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:
receive position information of an input means with respect to the other electronic device from the other electronic device; and
display a visual indicator based on the received position information.
5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:
receive information of an input command received at the other electronic device; and
perform a corresponding operation based on the received information of the input command.
6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein in response to the detected at least one event, an input receiving mechanism of the other electronic device is switched from a first input receiving mechanism to a second input receiving mechanism.
7. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein in response to the detected at least one event, a screen displaying mechanism of the other electronic device is switched from a first screen displaying mechanism to a second screen displaying mechanism.
8. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein a plurality of windows are displayed in the virtual reality screen based on the received screen information, and none or one of the plurality of windows is displayed in a screen of the other electronic device based on the screen information.
9. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein in response to the detected at least one event, rendering of the screen information at the other electronic device is stopped.
10. An electronic device comprising:
a memory storing instructions; and
at least one processor configured to execute the instructions to:
detect at least one event of the electronic device operating in a first mechanism;
in response to the detected at least one event, operate in a second mechanism; and
transmit screen information of the electronic device to another electronic device for displaying a virtual reality screen at the other electronic device based on the screen information.
11. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein the screen information includes first screen information regarding a first application running in foreground of the electronic device and second screen information regarding a second application running in background of the electronic device.
12. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:
store the first screen information and the second screen information at a first rate and a second rate respectively.
13. The electronic device of claim 12 , wherein the first rate is greater than the second rate.
14. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the instructions to:
store the first screen information and the second screen information in a dedicated buffer and a ring buffer respectively.
15. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein a plurality of windows are displayed in the virtual reality screen based on the screen information at the other electronic device and none or one of the plurality of windows is displayed in a screen of the electronic device based on the screen information.
16. The electronic device of claim 10 , wherein in response to the detected at least one event, rendering of the screen information at the electronic device is stopped.
17. A method performed at an electronic device, comprising:
detecting at least one event of another electronic device operating in a first mechanism;
in response to the detected at least one event, causing the other electronic device to operate in a second mechanism;
receiving screen information of the other electronic device; and
displaying a virtual reality screen based on the screen information.
18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the second mechanism comprises a hovering input mechanism, and the first mechanism excludes the hover input mechanism.
19. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:
receiving position information of an input means with respect to the other electronic device from the other electronic device; and
displaying a visual indicator based on the received position information.
20. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:
receiving information of an input command received at the other electronic device; and
performing a corresponding operation based on the received information of the input command.
