Abstract
A window in a multi-window display configuration is provided. A gaze of one or more users is directed at the window. The multi-window display configuration has a plurality of windows that are each configured to display corresponding content. Further, a window attribute of the window is modified based upon the gaze. In addition, a request for the content corresponding to the window is sent to a server. The content corresponding to the window is received from the server. The content corresponding to the window is then displayed according to the modified window attribute at the window.
Claims22
A display system comprising:
- one or more processing elements;
- a multi-window display having a plurality of windows each configured to display respective content;
- and
- one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media, the storage media encoded with instructions that when executed, cause the one or more processing elements to perform operations comprising:
- displaying the respective content for the plurality of windows, wherein the respective content is received from a server,
- determining a window in the multi-window display at which a gaze of a user is directed,
- modifying a window attribute of the window based upon the gaze,
- generating a modified window attribute based on the modification, wherein the modified window attribute comprises at least one of a bitrate of the respective content, a window dimension of the window, an audio volume corresponding to the window, or the respective content displayed by the window, and
- displaying the respective content according to the modified window attribute at the window.
A method comprising:
- displaying respective content for a plurality of windows in a multi-window display, wherein the respective content is received from a server;
- determining, by one or more processing elements, a window in the multi-window display at which a gaze of a user is directed;
- modifying, by the one or more processing elements, a window attribute of the window based upon the gaze;
- generating, by the one or more processing elements, a modified window attribute based on the modification, wherein the modified window attribute comprises at least one of a bitrate of the respective content, a window dimension of the window, an audio volume corresponding to the window, or the respective content displayed by the window;
- and
- displaying, by the one or more processing elements, the respective content according to the modified window attribute at the window.
A system comprising:
- a display configured to display a plurality of windows;
- a server;
- a streaming device configured to:
- displaying respective content for the plurality of windows, wherein the respective content is received from the server,
- receive the respective content from the server,
- determine a window in the display at which a gaze of a user is directed,
- modify a window attribute of the window based upon the gaze,
- generate a modified window attribute based on the modification, wherein the modified window attribute comprises at least one of a bitrate of the respective content, a window dimension of the window, an audio volume corresponding to the window, or the respective content displayed by the window, and
- cause the display to display the respective content according to the modified window attribute at the window.
