Abstract
A computational device detects an emotion of a reader while reading a printed version of a book via a virtual reality device. A determination is made of notes made by other readers of the book with a similar emotion to the reader, where the notes have been stored in association with an electronic version of the book. The notes are displayed on a virtual reality interface of the virtual reality device to the reader.
Claims20
A method performed by a computational device, the method comprising:
- detecting an emotion of a reader while reading a printed version of a book via a virtual reality device;
- determining notes made by other readers of the book with a similar emotion to the reader, wherein the notes have been stored in association with an electronic version of the book;
- and
- displaying the notes on a virtual reality interface of the virtual reality device to the reader.
A system, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor performs operations, the operations comprising:
- detecting an emotion of a reader while reading a printed version of a book via a virtual reality device;
- determining notes made by other readers of the book with a similar emotion to the reader, wherein the notes have been stored in association with an electronic version of the book;
- and
- displaying the notes on a virtual reality interface of the virtual reality device to the reader.
A computer program product, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code when executed is configured to perform operations, the operations comprising:
- detecting an emotion of a reader while reading a printed version of a book via a virtual reality device;
- determining notes made by other readers of the book with a similar emotion to the reader, wherein the notes have been stored in association with an electronic version of the book;
- and
- displaying the notes on a virtual reality interface of the virtual reality device to the reader.
