Content presentation in head worn computing
View Patent ↗A method, includes pre-setting a geo-spatial location where content will be displayed to a user of a see-through head-worn display, establishing a region proximate the geo-spatial location; and causing a marker recognition system of the head-worn see-through display to activate when data indicates that the see-through head-worn display is within the region, wherein the marker recognition system monitors a surrounding environment to identify a marker that will act as a virtual anchor for the presentation of the content.
1. A method, comprising:
pre-setting a geo-spatial location where content will be displayed to a user of a see-through head-worn display;
establishing a region proximate the geo-spatial location;
causing a marker recognition system of the head-worn see-through display to activate when data indicates that the see-through head-worn display is within the region, wherein the marker recognition system monitors a surrounding environment to identify a marker that will act as a virtual anchor for the presentation of the content; and
causing the marker recognition system to de-activate when data indicates that the see-through head-worn display is no longer within the region.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the marker is a pre-established physical attribute.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the marker is a priority marker selected from a plurality of markers, wherein the priority marker was identified by scanning the surrounding environment in a search for the plurality of markers.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geo-spatial location was selected based on personal information known about the user.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geo-spatial location was selected based on a presentation preference setting established by the user.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geo-spatial location was selected based on a preference of a sender of the content.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geo-spatial location was selected based on a preference setting of the content.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the content relates to the geo-spatial location.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the content does not relate to the geo-spatial location.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the content is sent by another user characterized as a friend of the user through an known affiliation.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the content is a text message.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the content is a video.
13. The method of claim 1 , wherein informational content is presented to the user in the see-through head-worn display to indicate to the user that the content is queued for presentation.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the informational content is presented outside of the region.
15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the informational content further includes an indication of a direction in which the user will be presented with the content.
16. A system, comprising:
a see-through head-worn display; and
a marker recognition system of the head-worn see-through display that activates when data indicates that the see-through head-worn display is within a region proximate to a geo-spatial location, wherein the marker recognition system monitors a surrounding environment to identify a marker that will act as a virtual anchor for the presentation of content, wherein the marker recognition system de-activates when data indicates that the see-through head-worn display is no longer within the region.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the marker is a pre-established physical attribute.
18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the marker is a priority marker selected from a plurality of markers, wherein the priority marker was identified by scanning the surrounding environment in a search for the plurality of markers.
19. The system of claim 16 , wherein the geo-spatial location was selected based on personal information known about the user.
20. The system of claim 16 , wherein the geo-spatial location was selected based on a presentation preference setting established by the user.
