SELECTIVE SHARING OF BODY DATA

摘要

Information from a position and/or gesture detection system can be transmitted to various devices in order to enable users to interact and/or view others users. In some embodiments, video is captured that includes a current view of the body of a user. In order to prevent an unauthorized, unintended, or undesired transmission of at least part of the body image data, one or more settings or policies can be specified that can control which portions are transmitted, received, and/or displayed. For example, a user can be prompted before body image or position data is transmitted, which enables a user to control the type of data that is sent. A recipient or intermediate entity or component can also specify one or more settings or policies to control the type of data that is transmitted and/or received. In some embodiments, an external service can be utilized to manage the transmission of data.
