Abstract

A portable electronic device is used with a mixed reality headset. The MR headset includes a lens and a holder that retains the portable electronic device in a defined orientation relative to the lens. The portable electronic device includes a camera, a display device, and a processor. The camera outputs video frames and is arranged to view the lens. The display device is arranged to display information that is projected on the lens for reflection directly or indirectly toward the user's eyes and the camera. The processor performs operations that include processing the video frames from the camera to identify locations of at least one real-world feature, displaying information on the display device, and controlling at least one of the processing of the video frames and the displaying of the information on the display device to at least partially reduce occurrence in the video frames of the displayed information.
