Abstract: An augmented reality head-mounted device includes a gaze detector, a camera, and a communication interface. The gaze detector determines a gaze vector of an eye of a wearer of the augmented reality head-mounted device. The camera images a physical space including a display of a computing device. The communication interface sends a control signal to the computing device in response to a wearer input. The control signal indicates a location at which the gaze vector intersects the display and useable by the computing device to adjust operation of the computing device.

Abstract: Examples are disclosed herein that relate to identifying and localizing devices in an environment via an augmented reality display device. One example provides, on a portable augmented reality computing device, a method including establishing a coordinate frame for an environment, and discovering, via a location-sensitive input device, a location of a physical manifestation of the device in the environment, assigning a device location for the device in the coordinate frame based upon the location of the physical manifestation, and modifying an output of the portable augmented reality computing device based upon a change in relative position between the portable augmented reality computing device and the physical manifestation in environment.

Abstract: Methods for managing content within an interactive augmented reality environment are described. An augmented reality environment may be provided to an end user of a head-mounted display device (HMD) in which content (e.g., webpages) may be displayed to the end user using one or more curved slates that are positioned on a virtual cylinder that appears body-locked to the end user. The virtual cylinder may be located around the end user with the end user positioned in the middle of the virtual cylinder such that the one or more curved slates appear to be displayed at the same distance from the end user. The position and size of each of the one or more curved slates may be controlled by the end user using head gestures and a virtual pointer projected onto the virtual cylinder.
