Abstract
A device has a biometric sensor, a display, a light source, and a hardware processor. The biometric sensor measures biometric information of a user of the device. The display displays augmented reality (AR) content. The light source outputs a visual signal. The hardware processor performs operations comprising: identifying a task being performed by the user of the device, determining a disruption level based on a combination of the AR content, the task, and the biometric information, and generating, using the light source, the visual signal corresponding to the disruption level. The visual indicator visually alerts other users of other devices to avoid engaging the user of the device.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- a biometric sensor configured to measure biometric information of a user of the device;
- a display configured to display augmented reality (AR) content;
- a light source configured to output any of a plurality of visual signals;
- and
- one or more hardware processors comprising a disruption indicator application, the disruption indicator application configured to perform operations comprising:
- identifying a task being performed by the user of the device;
- determining a disruption level based on a combination of the AR content, the task, and the biometric information;
- and
- causing the light source to output a visual signal corresponding to the disruption level and selected from the plurality of visual signals, the visual signal being configured to visually alert other users of other devices to avoid engaging the user of the device.
A method comprising:
- measuring biometric information of a user of the device using a biometric sensor of the device;
- displaying augmented reality (AR) content in a display of the device;
- identifying a task being performed by the user of the device;
- determining a disruption level based on a combination of the AR content, the task, and the biometric information;
- and
- generating, using a light source of the device, a visual signal corresponding to the disruption level, the visual indicator configured to visually alert other users of other devices to avoid engaging the user of the device.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:
- measuring biometric information of a user of the device using a biometric sensor of the device;
- displaying augmented reality (AR) content in a display of the device;
- identifying a task being performed by the user of the device;
- determining a disruption level based on a combination of the AR content, the task, and the biometric information;
- and
- generating, using a light source of the device, a visual signal corresponding to the disruption level, the visual indicator configured to visually alert other users of other devices to avoid engaging the user of the device.
