Headset power unit visualization
A method can include executing an application using a virtual reality headset; rendering a scene of the application to a display of the virtual reality headset; and, during rendering of the scene, rendering a graphic to the display where the graphic represents a power unit that is not physically coupled to the virtual reality headset.
1. A method comprising:
executing an application using a virtual reality headset;
rendering a scene of the application to a display of the virtual reality headset; and
during rendering of the scene, rendering a graphic to the display wherein the graphic represents a power unit that is not physically coupled to the virtual reality headset.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the graphic represents a power state of the power unit.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the graphic represents a location of the power unit.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the graphic represents the power unit and simultaneously represents an object of the scene.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the object of the scene is a game object.
6. The method of claim 1 , comprising receiving a signal from the power unit.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the signal is a location signal.
8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the signal is a power state signal.
9. The method of claim 6 , wherein the receiving is responsive to transmitting a signal to the power unit.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein rendering the graphic to the display is responsive to determining time remaining for the executing of the application using a current power supply.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the current power supply is via a power unit physically coupled to the virtual reality headset.
12. One or more computer-readable media comprising processor-executable instructions, executable to:
execute an application using a virtual reality headset;
render a scene of the application to a display of the virtual reality headset; and
render a graphic to the display, in the scene, wherein the graphic represents a power unit that is not physically coupled to the virtual reality headset.
13. A system comprising:
a virtual reality headset that comprises a display, power unit locating circuitry, and a power unit coupling, wherein the virtual reality headset renders one or more graphics to the display based on output of the power unit locating circuitry; and
a plurality of power units.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein each of the plurality of power units couples to the power unit coupling of the virtual reality headset in multiple orientations.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the multiple orientations comprise different rotational orientations about a power unit coupling axis.
16. The system of claim 13 , wherein each of the plurality of power units comprises at least one lithium-ion cell.
17. The system of claim 13 , wherein the power unit locating circuitry comprises at least one electromagnetic energy detector.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the power unit locating circuitry comprises at least one electromagnetic energy emitter.
19. The system of claim 17 , wherein each of the plurality of power units comprises at least one electromagnetic energy emitter.
20. The system of claim 13 , wherein the power unit coupling is disposed on an external surface of the virtual reality headset.
