Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to shadowing objects displayed in head worn computing.

Claims (4)

1. A method, comprising:

capturing an image of an environment in proximity to a viewing angle of a person wearing a head-worn computer;

analyzing the image to determine a position of each of a plurality of light sources collectively producing a naturally formed shadow in the environment, wherein the naturally formed shadow comprises multiple shadows cast from an individual object in the environment, each of the multiple shadows formed from light traveling from a position of one of the plurality of light sources to the individual object; and

displaying a computer generated object in association with a computer generated shadow in a field of view of the head-worn computer, wherein the computer generated shadow appears as though produced by light striking the computer generated object from the position of a dominant one of the plurality of light sources.
