  • Augmented reality user interface
    Patent number: 10168788
    Abstract: A technique for interacting with a computing device includes operating an AR (Augmented Reality) headset as a UI (user interface) component of the computing device. The technique includes pairing the AR headset with the computing device to establish a communication pathway between the two. Once pairing is established, the AR headset detects gestures of the user and transmits UI metadata derived from the gestures to the computing device. The computing device is configured to receive the UI metadata over the communication pathway and to map the UI metadata to user operations to be performed on the computing device. The technique thereby enables the user to control the computing device using gestures.
