Methods for providing real-time feedback to an end user of a mobile device as they are interacting with or manipulating one or more virtual objects within an augmented reality environment are described. The real-time feedback may comprise visual feedback, audio feedback, and/or haptic feedback. In some embodiments, a mobile device, such as a head-mounted display device (HMD), may determine an object classification associated with a virtual object within an augmented reality environment, detect an object manipulation gesture performed by an end user of the mobile device, detect an interaction with the virtual object based on the object manipulation gesture, determine a magnitude of a virtual force associated with the interaction, and provide real-time feedback to the end user of the mobile device based on the interaction, the magnitude of the virtual force applied to the virtual object, and the object classification associated with the virtual object.

Assisted viewing of web-based resources by an end user of a head-mounted display device (HMD) is described. An HMD may display content from web-based resources using a see-through display while tracking eye and head movement of the end user viewing the content within an augmented reality environment. Active view regions within the see-through display are identified based on tracking information including eye gaze data and head direction data. The web-based resources are analyzed to identify content and display elements. The analysis is correlated with the active view regions to identify the underlying content that is a desired point of focus of a corresponding active view region, as well as to identify the display elements corresponding to that content. A web-based resource is modified based on the correlation. The content from the web-based resource is displayed based on the modifications to assist the end user in viewing the web-based resource.

Methods for positioning virtual objects within an augmented reality environment using snap grid spaces associated with real-world environments, real-world objects, and/or virtual objects within the augmented reality environment are described. A snap grid space may comprise a two-dimensional or three-dimensional virtual space within an augmented reality environment in which one or more virtual objects may be positioned. In some embodiments, a head-mounted display device (HMD) may identify one or more grid spaces within an augmented reality environment, detect a positioning of a virtual object within the augmented reality environment, determine a target grid space of the one or more grid spaces in which to position the virtual object, determine a position of the virtual object within the target grid space, and display the virtual object within the augmented reality environment based on the position of the virtual object within the target grid space.

Technology is described for web-like hierarchical menu interface which displays a menu in a web-like hierarchical menu display configuration in a near-eye display (NED). The web-like hierarchical menu display configuration links menu levels and menu items within a menu level with flexible spatial dimensions for menu elements. One or more processors executing the interface select a web-like hierarchical menu display configuration based on the available menu space and user head view direction determined from a 3D mapping of the NED field of view data and stored user head comfort rules. Activation parameters in menu item selection criteria are adjusted to be user specific based on user head motion data tracked based on data from one or more sensors when the user wears the NED. Menu display layout may be triggered by changes in head view direction of the user and available menu space about the user's head.

Methods for controlling the display of content as the content is being viewed by an end user of a head-mounted display device (HMD) are described. In some embodiments, an HMD may display the content using a virtual content reader for reading the content. The content may comprise text and/or images, such as text or images associated with an electronic book, an electronic magazine, a word processing document, a webpage, or an email. The virtual content reader may provide automated content scrolling based on a rate at which the end user reads a portion of the displayed content on the virtual content reader. In one embodiment, an HMD may combine automatic scrolling of content displayed on the virtual content reader with user controlled scrolling (e.g., via head tracking of the end user of the HMD).
摘要:
A system and method are disclosed for augmenting a reading experience in a mixed reality environment. In response to predefined verbal or physical gestures, the mixed reality system is able to answer a user's questions or provide additional information relating to what the user is reading. Responses may be displayed to the user on virtual display slates in a border or around the reading material without obscuring text or interfering with the user's reading experience.

Methods for enabling hands-free selection of virtual objects are described. In some embodiments, a gaze swipe gesture may be used to select a virtual object. The gaze swipe gesture may involve an end user of a head-mounted display device (HMD) performing head movements that are tracked by the HMD to detect whether a virtual pointer controlled by the end user has swiped across two or more edges of the virtual object. In some cases, the gaze swipe gesture may comprise the end user using their head movements to move the virtual pointer through two edges of the virtual object while the end user gazes at the virtual object. In response to detecting the gaze swipe gesture, the HMD may determine a second virtual object to be displayed on the HMD based on a speed of the gaze swipe gesture and a size of the virtual object.
