Abstract
A method and apparatus for coordinating a master/follower device arrangement in a virtual reality (VR) environment is disclosed. A head mounted display (HMD) includes a transceiver, a display, and a processor coupled to the transceiver and display. The processor is configured to control the transceiver to receive, from at least one other HMD, data related to a field of view (FOV) of the at least one other HMD in a virtual reality (VR) environment. The processor is further configured to generate, using the data related to the FOV of the at least one other HMD, an FOV of the HMD in the VR environment.
