Rotation of visual content on a display unit
First Claim
1. A graphics presentation apparatus, comprising:
- a display unit configured to present visual content;
a data output module configured to;
receive graphics data and a control signal; and
produce, in response to receiving the graphics data and the control signal, the visual content, wherein that the visual content has a particular orientation relative to the display unit; and
an eye-tracking module configured to;
register image data representing at least one eye of a user of the graphics presentation apparatus;
determine, based on said image data, an orientation of the at least one eye of the user relative to the display unit; and
generate, in response to determining an orientation, the control signal so that the control signal controls the data output module to produce the visual content with an angle that is adaptively adjustable to the orientation of the at least one eye of the user in increments other than 90 degrees.

Abstract
A graphics presentation apparatus including a display unit, an eye-tracking module, and a data output module. The eye-tracking module registers image data representing at least one eye of a user of the apparatus. Furthermore, the eye-tracking module determines, based on the registered image data, an orientation of the at least one eye relative to the display unit. Finally, in response thereto, the eye-tracking module generates a control signal controlling the data output module to produce visual content with such orientation on the display unit that a misalignment between the orientation of said at least one part and the orientation of the at least one eye of the user is minimized.

7. A method of presenting visual content on a display unit of a graphics presentation apparatus, the method comprising:
-
presenting the visual content with a particular orientation relative to the display unit; and producing the visual content in response to graphics data and a control signal, wherein producing the visual content further comprises; registering image data representing at least one eye of a user of the graphics presentation apparatus; determining, based on said image data, an orientation of the at least one eye of the user relative to the display unit; and generating, in response to determining an orientation of the at least one eye of the user relative to the display unit, the control signal so that the visual content is produced with an angle that is adaptively adjustable to the orientation of the at least one eye of the user in increments other than 90 degrees. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)

11. A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable program code portions embodied therein, the computer-readable program code portions executable to control the steps of:
-
presenting the visual content with a particular orientation relative to the display unit; and producing the visual content in response to graphics data and a control signal, wherein producing the visual content further comprises; registering image data representing at least one eye of a user of the graphics presentation apparatus; determining, based on said image data, an orientation of the at least one eye of the user relative to the display unit; and generating, in response to determining an orientation of the at least one eye of the user relative to the display unit, the control signal so that the visual content is produced with an angle that is adaptively adjustable to the orientation of the at least one eye of the user in increments other than 90 degrees.
