Controlling graphic field of view by operating head mounted display

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• generating, by one or more processors of an immersive head-mounted display (IHMD), a first graphical field of view to present on one or more displays of the IHMD, the first graphical field of view including primary content;
• receiving, by the IHMD, status data from a plurality of targets;
• receiving, by the IHMD, alert data for one or more of the plurality of targets;
• pausing, by the one or more processors, playback of the primary content and presenting the alert data on the one or more displays in response to determining an alert priority of the alert data exceeds a predetermined threshold;
• generating, by the one or more processors, one or more second graphical fields of view to present on the one or more displays, the one or more second graphical fields of view including at least a first representation of a first target and a second representation of a second target;
• determining, by the one or more processors, one or more first control elements for the first target based on first status data for the first target and one or more second control elements for the second target based on second status data for the second target, the one or more first control elements including at least one control element unique from the one or more second control elements;
• generating, by the one or more processors, one or more third graphical fields of view that are shifted in one or more directions from the one or more second graphical field of views in response to receiving first movement data, from one or more motion sensing detectors of the IHMD, indicative of the IHMD being moved in the one or more directions toward the first target or the second target, the one or more third graphical fields of view including the one or more first control elements or the one or more second control elements;
• and
• analyzing, by the one or more processors, second movement data to determine user activation of the one or more first control elements or the one or more second control elements in response to receiving the second movement data within a predetermined amount of time.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, upon being executed by one or more processors of an immersive head-mounted display (IHMD), cause the one or more processors to:

• generate a first graphical field of view to present on one or more displays of the IHMD, the first graphical field of view including primary content;
• receive status data from a plurality of targets;
• pause playback of the primary content and generate alert data to present on the one or more displays in response to determining the status data exceeds a predetermined threshold;
• generate one or more second graphical fields of view to present on the one or more displays, the one or more second graphical fields of view including at least a first representation of a first target and a second representation of a second target;
• determine one or more first control elements for the first target based on first status data for the first target and one or more second control elements for the second target based on second status data for the second target, the one or more first control elements including at least one control element unique from the one or more second control elements;
• generate one or more third graphical fields of view that are shifted in one or more directions from the one or more second graphical fields of view to present on the one or more displays in response to receiving first movement data, from one or more motion sensing detectors of the IHMD, indicative of the IHMD being moved in the one or more directions toward the first target or the second target, the one or more third graphical fields of view including the one or more first control elements or the one or more second control elements;
• and
• analyze second movement data to determine user activation of the one or more first control elements or the one or more second control elements in response to receiving the second movement data within a predetermined amount of time.

An immersive head-mounted display (IHMD) comprising:

• one or more motion sensing detectors;
• one or more processors;
• and
• memory including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive status data from a plurality of targets;
• generate a first graphical field of view to present on the one or more displays, the first graphical field of view including at least a first representation of a first target and a second representation of a second target;
• determine one or more first control elements for the first target based on first status data for the first target and one or more second control elements for the second target based on second status data for the second target, the one or more first control elements including at least one control element unique from the one or more second control elements;
• generate one or more second graphical fields of view that are shifted in one or more first directions from the first graphical field of view to present on the one or more displays in response to receiving first movement data, from the one or more motion sensing detectors, indicative of the IHMD being moved in the one or more first directions toward the first target, the one or more second graphical fields of view including the one or more first control elements;
• analyze second movement data to determine user activation of the one or more first control elements in response to receiving the second movement data within a predetermined amount of time;
• generate one or more third graphical fields of view that are shifted in one or more second directions from the one or more second graphical fields of view to present on the one or more displays in response to receiving third movement data, from the one or more motion sensing detectors, indicative of the IHMD being moved in the one or more second directions toward the second target, the one or more third graphical fields of view including the one or more second control elements;
• and
• analyze fourth movement data to determine user activation of the one or more second control elements in response to receiving the fourth movement data within the predetermined amount of time.
