  • Augmenting a field of view in connection with vision-tracking
    Patent number: 8494215
    Abstract: The claimed subject matter relates to an architecture that can employ vision-monitoring techniques to enhance an experience associated with elements of a local environment. In particular, the architecture can establish gaze- or eye-tracking attributes in connection with a user. In addition, a location and a head or face-based perspective of the user can also be obtained. By aggregating this information, the architecture can identify a current field of view of the user, and then map that field of view to a modeled view in connection with a geospatial model of the environment. In addition, the architecture can select additional content that relates to an entity in the view or a modeled entity in the modeled view, and further present the additional content to the user.
