Abstract

Various embodiments relating to editing holograms by extending real world interfaces are disclosed. One embodiment includes a computing device configured to communicatively couple to a head mounted display device having an at least partially see-through display. The computing device includes a non-see-through display, a user input device, and a processor configured to determine whether a user focus is on an image or a hologram, if a determination is made that the user focus is on the image, map the user input to a first coordinate space of the non-see-through display, and if a determination is made that the user focus is the on the hologram, map the user input to a second coordinate space of the head mounted display device.
