Abstract
An information handling system presents unsecure content at a display and secure content at privacy glasses worn by an end user overlapping the location where the secure content would be presented if a secure context allowed presentation at the display. A mouse cursor presented at the display supports interaction with both the unsecure content and the secure content through presentation at the display. The mouse cursor at the display is controllable by touch detections surfaces in the privacy glasses frame. Typed content is presented at the display when it inputs unsecure content and at the privacy glasses when it inputs secure content.
Claims17
An information handling system comprising:
- a housing;
- a processor coupled in the housing and operable to execute instructions to process information;
- a memory coupled in the housing and interfaced with the processor, the memory operable to store the instructions and information;
- a display coupled in the housing and interfaced with the processer, the display operable to present the information as visual images;
- a wireless network interface controller coupled to the housing and interfaced with the processor, the wireless network interface controller operable to communicate information with wireless signals;
- privacy glasses separate from the housing and having a display aligned with an end user's eyes when worn on an end user's face, the privacy glasses interfaced with the processor and operable to present the information as visual images;
- and
- a persistent storage having non-transitory memory storing instructions that when executed on the processor cause:
- separation of content presented at the display as nonsecure content and secure content;
- presentation of the nonsecure content at the display;
- presentation of the secure content at only the privacy glasses display;
- presentation of a block of a first predetermined color at a location of the display where the secure content would be presented when an unsecure context is detected;
- and
- presentation of the secure content at the privacy glasses display with a second color that contrasts against the first color.
A method for presenting secure information by an information handling system, the method comprising:
- separating content presented at a display as nonsecure content and secure content;
- presenting the nonsecure content at the display;
- presenting the secure content at only a display of privacy glasses;
- presenting a block of a first color at the display;
- and
- presenting the secure content at the privacy glasses with a second color that contrasts against the first color.
A system for presenting information as visual images by an information handling system, the system comprising:
- a display operable to present information as visual images;
- privacy glasses operable to fit over an end user's eyes and operable to present information as visual images;
- and
- a non-transitory memory storing instructions that when executed on a processor cause:
- separation of content presented at the display as nonsecure content and secure content;
- presentation of the nonsecure content at the display;
- presentation of the secure content at only the privacy glasses display when a nonsecure context is detected;
- present a block of a first predetermined color at a location of the display where the secure content would be presented when an unsecure context is detected;
- and
- present the secure content at the privacy glasses display with a second color that contrasts against the first color.
