Estimating the term…
A head-mounted device may include a camera with a target depth range. The camera may capture images of physical objects that include text for optical character recognition (OCR). In one arrangement, no images from the camera are presented to the user during OCR. Accordingly, it may not be apparent to the user when the images captured by the camera are blurry, when the physical object is outside the target depth range, or when OCR is not able to be performed with a high accuracy. To allow the user to easily determine when the physical object is outside the target depth range, the head-mounted device may provide audio and/or visual feedback. Presenting visual feedback may include displaying text instructions, adjusting an appearance of a visual indicator that is aligned with the physical object, or displaying a virtual object at a depth that is within the target depth range.
