Abstract
This disclosure concerns an interactive head-mounted eyepiece with an integrated processor for handling content for display and an integrated image source for introducing the content to an optical assembly through which the user views a surrounding environment and the displayed content, wherein the eyepiece includes predictive control of external device based on an event input.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a communications facility;
- a processor;
- and
- a storage device comprising instructions executable by the processor to:
- receive location data regarding a location of each of a plurality of head-mounted display devices,
- receive from each of the plurality of head-mounted display devices data related to a detected noise,
- determine an origin of the detected noise based on the location data and the data related to the detected noise, and
- provide, to each head-mounted display device from which the data related to the detected noise and the location data was received, information regarding a direction towards the detected noise from the head-mounted display device.

Enacted on a computing system, a method comprising:
- receiving location data regarding a location of each of a plurality of head-mounted display devices,
- receiving from each of the plurality of head-mounted display devices data related to a detected noise,
- determining an origin of the detected noise based on the location data and the data related to the detected noise, and
- provide, to each head-mounted display device from which the data related to the detected noise and the location data was received, information regarding a direction towards the detected noise from the head-mounted display device.
1 more element
A system, comprising:
- a head-mounted display device including an optical assembly through which at least a part of a surrounding environment and also displayed content are viewable;
- an acoustic sensor;
- an image source configured to introduce content for display via the optical assembly;
- a communications facility;
- a storage device;
- and
- a processor configured to execute instructions to:
- receive, via the communications facility, location data from a plurality of other head-mounted display devices,
- receive data related to a detected noise from the acoustic sensor,
- receive, via the communications facility, data related to the detected noise from each of the plurality of other head-mounted display devices,
- determine an origin of the detected noise based on the location data, and
- for each of the plurality of other head-mounted display devices, send, via the communications facility, to the head-mounted display device information regarding a direction towards the detected noise from the head-mounted display device.
