Determination of an operation
First Claim
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a near eye display;
an environmental sensor configured to detect a distance of an eye of a user of the apparatus to the near eye display;
at least one processor; and
at least one memory comprising computer program code, the memory and the computer program code configured to, working with the processor, cause the apparatus to perform either a first operation or a second operation upon receipt of a substantially similar input and based on the detected distance, wherein the input is substantially similar in relation to either the first or the second operation.

Abstract
A method comprising entering a passive viewing state of an apparatus, receiving information indicative of a first input, determining a first operation based, at least in part, on a passive viewing state and the first input, performing the first operation, receiving environmental sensor information, determining that the environmental sensor information indicates that the apparatus is actively viewed by a user, entering of an active viewing state of the apparatus based, at least in part, on the determination that the environmental sensor information indicates that the apparatus is actively viewed by the user, receiving information indicative of a second input, the second input being substantially the same as the first input, determining a second operation based, at least in part, on the active viewing state and the second input, the second operation being different from the first operation, and performing the second operation is disclosed.
