Abstract
For presenting the message in a location of a display based on a location of a user's limb, methods, apparatus, and systems are disclosed. One apparatus includes a display that presents a first view, a processor, and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. Here, the processor receives a first message to be presented to a user within the first view. The processor determines a location of a limb of the user relative to the first view. Moreover, the processor presents the first message in a location of the first view based on the limb location.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a display that presents a first view;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores code executable by the processor to:
- receive a first message to be presented to a user within the first view, wherein the first message comprises a notification;
- determine a location of a limb of the user relative to the first view;
- and
- present the first message in a location of the first view based on the limb location.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by use of a processor, a first message to be presented to a user via a display, the display showing a first view, wherein the first message comprises a prompt;
- determining a location of a limb of the user relative to the first view, the first view being one of a virtual reality view and an augmented reality view;
- and
- displaying the first message in a location of the first view based on the limb location.
A program product comprising a computer readable storage medium that stores code executable by a processor, the executable code comprising code that:
- receives a first message to be presented to a user via an augmented reality display, the augmented reality display showing a first view, wherein the first message comprises text;
- determines whether a limb of the user is within the first view;
- displays the first message in a first location of the augmented reality display in response to the limb of the user being within the first view, the first location based on a limb location;
- and
- displays a message indication in a second location of the augmented reality display in response to the limb of the user not being within the first view.
