Abstract
An information handling system operating an HMD device may include a video display device to display application images or a fiducial image when the HMD device is worn by a user; the HMD device including: a display device in the HMD device to present to a user an XR (XR) image of a surrounding XR environment; a pass-through camera to detect the fiducial image displayed by the video display device; and an HMD processor to receive data from an HMD wearing sensor indicating that the user is wearing the HMD device and execute computer readable program code to display an XR environment to the user including an XR image version of the application images presented to the user via the video display device; wherein detection of the fiducial image triggers an API with the XR image version of the video display application images via the video display device.
