Abstract

A method for virtual guard rail implementation includes collecting user parameters, representing user limitations, for a computer simulation executed by a computer. Execution of the computer simulation is monitored for virtual content that exceeds the user parameters. The monitoring may be performed in real-time and prior to presentation of the content on a display to the user. Virtual content that exceeds the user parameters is replaced with virtual guard rail content that remains within the user parameters.
