User interface for a head mounted display
A headset comprises an arrangement and a display. The arrangement is situated at least partially on a head of a user. The display is coupled to the arrangement and capable of displaying a pointing device to the user. The headset is coupled to a mobile device which includes a sensor. When the mobile device is moved, the sensor detects a direction of the movement to generate corresponding direction data. The display displays to the user a corresponding movement of the pointing device which is determined as a function of the corresponding direction data.
1. A headset, comprising:
an arrangement situated at least partially on a head of a user; and
a display coupled to the arrangement, the display capable of displaying a pointing device to the user,
wherein the headset is coupled to a mobile device which includes a sensor, when the mobile device is moved, the sensor detects a direction of the movement to generate corresponding direction data, the display displaying to the user a corresponding movement of the pointing device which is determined as a function of the corresponding direction data,
wherein the mobile device is coupled to an accessory which includes an accessory sensor detecting a second direction in which the accessory is moved to generate second corresponding direction data, the display displaying to the user a second corresponding movement of the pointing device which is determined as a function of the second corresponding direction data.
2. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the headset is coupled to the mobile device through one of a wired connection and a wireless connection.
3. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the mobile device is coupled through one of a wired connection and a wireless connection to the accessory.
4. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the accessory is a data capture device including at least one of a scanner, an imager, a camera, and a radio frequency identification reader.
5. The headset of claim 1 , wherein an activation of the accessory sensor deactivates the sensor of the mobile device.
6. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the display is oriented to be over an eye of the user.
7. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the sensor is one of a motion sensor and an inertial sensor.
8. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the sensor includes an accelerometer.
9. The headset of claim 1 , wherein the display is coupled to an extender extending from a frame of the headset.
10. The headset of claim 9 , wherein when the extender is moved in an upright position, the display is deactivated.
11. The headset of claim 1 , further comprising:
an audio input receiving voice data, the voice data including voice commands one of activating and deactivating the display.
12. A mobile device, comprising:
an input/output arrangement coupled to a headset that includes a display, the display capable of displaying a pointing device to a user; and
a sensor detecting a direction corresponding to a movement of the mobile device to generate corresponding direction data, the display displaying to the user a corresponding movement of the pointing device which is determined as a function of the corresponding direction data,
an input/output component for coupling the mobile device to an accessory which includes an accessory sensor, the accessory sensor detecting a second direction in which the accessory is moved to generate second corresponding direction data, the display displaying to the user a second corresponding movement of the pointing device which is determined as a function of the second corresponding direction data.
13. The mobile device of claim 12 , wherein the mobile device is coupled to the headset through one of a wired connection and a wireless connection.
14. The mobile device of claim 12 , wherein the mobile device is coupled through one of a wired connection and a wireless connection to the accessory.
15. The mobile device of claim 12 , wherein the accessory is a data capture device including at least one of a scanner, an imager, a camera, and a radio frequency identification reader.
16. The mobile device of claim 12 , wherein an activation of the accessory sensor deactivates the sensor of the mobile device.
17. The mobile device of claim 12 , wherein the mobile device is fixedly mounted.
18. The mobile device of claim 12 , further comprising:
a portable power supply providing energy to the mobile device and the headset.
19. The mobile device of claim 12 , wherein the sensor is one of a motion sensor and an inertial sensor.
20. The mobile device of claim 19 , wherein the sensor includes an accelerometer.
21. The mobile device of claim 12 , wherein the sensor is manually activated.
22. A system, comprising:
a headset including an arrangement situated at least partially on a head of a user and a display coupled to the arrangement, the display capable of displaying a pointing device to the user; and
a mobile device coupled to the headset and an accessory, the mobile device including an input/output arrangement establishing the coupling and a sensor detecting a direction in which the mobile device is moved to generate corresponding direction data, the display displaying to the user a corresponding movement of the pointing device which is determined as a function of the corresponding direction data,
the accessory which includes an accessory sensor, the accessory sensor detecting a second direction in which the accessory is moved to generate second corresponding direction data, the display displaying to the user a second corresponding movement of the pointing device which is determined as a function of the second corresponding direction data.
