An electronic device determines information about a target and provides the information to another electronic device that has an obstructed view of the target. The other electronic device displays an image of the target with an orientation and a location of the target.
Claims19
A method comprising:
- capturing, with one or more electronics with a first user who wears a first head mounted display (HMD) on a head of the first user, information that includes a global positioning system (GPS) location of the first user and a direction that the first user is moving;
- capturing, with one or more electronics with a second user who wears a second HMD on a head of the second user, information that includes a GPS location of the second user and a direction that the second user is moving;
- and
- automatically displaying, with a display of the second HMD and in response to a direction of gaze of the second user being at a predetermined direction, an augmented reality (AR) image of a map that shows the first user, the second user, the direction that the first user is moving, and the direction that the second user is moving.

A method comprising:
- sharing, to a map and from one or more electronic devices with a first user who wears a first head mounted display (HMD), information that includes a location of the first user and a direction that the first user is facing;
- and
- automatically displaying, with a display of a second HMD worn on a head of a second user and in response to detecting a direction of gaze of the second user being at a first predetermined direction, a virtual image of the map that simultaneously shows a target, the first user, the second user, the direction that the first user is facing, and a direction that the second user is facing.
An electronic device system, comprising:
- a first head mounted display (HMD) worn on a head of a first user and including a first camera that tracks a gaze of the first user and a first display that displays a virtual compass that shows a compass direction of the first user in response to the first camera detecting the gaze of the first user being in a predetermined direction;
- and
- a second HMD worn on a head of a second user and including a second camera that tracks a gaze of the second user and a second display that displays a virtual compass that shows a compass direction of the second user in response to the second camera detecting the gaze of the second user being in a predetermined direction,
- wherein first HMD automatically displays a virtual map in response to the first camera detecting the gaze of the first user being in another predetermined direction, wherein the virtual map simultaneously shows the first user, the second user, the direction of the first user, and the direction of the second user.
