Abstract
In one example, a method performed by a processing system includes controlling a first device in a first location to project a virtual presences in a current field of view of a subscriber of a virtual presence projection service, computing a moving trajectory of the subscriber from the first location to a second location, identifying a second device that is located along the moving trajectory, wherein the second device includes a second set of resources for projecting virtual presences, and wherein the second device is registered with the virtual presence projection service to lend the second set of resources to subscribers of the virtual presence projection service, and controlling the second device to project the virtual presence in the current field of view of the subscriber when the subscriber is no longer within range of the first device but is within range of the second device.
