Abstract
In some examples, a computing device is to detect a fiducial mark on a portable device that comprises a display screen, generate supplemental information that corresponds to information presented in the display screen of the portable device, and cause display of the supplemental information by a display device of the computing device, according to an orientation that is based on the detected fiducial mark, the displayed supplemental information supplementing the information presented in the display screen of the portable device.
Claims15
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing instructions that upon execution cause a computing device to:
- detect a fiducial mark on a portable device that comprises a display screen;
- generate supplemental information that corresponds to information presented in the display screen of the portable device;
- and
- cause display of the supplemental information by a display device of the computing device, according to an orientation that is based on the detected fiducial mark, the displayed supplemental information supplementing the information presented in the display screen of the portable device.
A body-mounted device comprising:
- a display device;
- and
- a processor to:
- receive metadata of information being displayed in a display screen of a portable device;
- detect an orientation of the display screen of the portable device based on a fiducial mark on a housing of the portable device;
- cause display, at the display device, of supplemental information in a virtual display screen that is positioned according to the orientation of the display screen of the portable device, the supplemental information based on the metadata of the information being displayed in the display screen of the portable device.
A method comprising:
- determining, by a computing device, information being presented by a display screen of a portable device that is being viewed by a user;
- detecting, by the computing device, a fiducial mark on a housing of the portable device;
- determining, by the computing device, an orientation of the display screen of the portable device based on the detected fiducial mark;
- and
- generating, by the computing device, a virtual display screen that is visible to the user, the generated virtual display screen displaying supplemental information corresponding to the information being presented by the display screen of the portable device, and the generated virtual display screen being oriented according to the determined orientation of the display screen of the portable device.
