Claims19
Wearable electronic glasses (WEG) comprising:
- one or more sensors that measure a direction of gaze of a user wearing the WEG;
- and
- a display that automatically displays, in response to the direction of gaze of the user being at a predetermined direction, a virtual image of a map that shows a location of a person that is obstructed and not visible with a naked eye of the user, a compass direction from the user to the person, and a distance from the user to the person,
- wherein the display automatically removes the virtual image of the map in response to the direction of gaze of the user no longer being at the predetermined direction.

A method comprising:
- determining a direction of gaze of a user wearing a wearable electronic device (WED) on a head of the user;
- simultaneously displaying, with a display of the WED and in response to determining the direction of gaze of the user is at a designated location, virtual images that include a virtual image that represents a person that is obstructed from view of the user wearing the WED, a compass direction the user is looking, and a distance from the user to the person;
- and
- automatically removing, from the display of the WED, the virtual images in response to determining the direction of gaze of the user is no longer at the designated location.
