1. A method, comprising:
- displaying image data representing a subset of real space in a pre-defined vicinity of a portable computing device;
determining a set of points of interest (POIs) of one or more location based services supported by the portable computing device within scope of the subset of real space represented by the image data; and
automatically overlaying content relating to at least one POI of the set of POIs on the image data displayed according to the displaying.

Abstract
With the addition of directional information in the environment, a variety of service(s) can be provided on top of user identification or interaction with specific object(s) of interest by pointing at the objects. Image data representing a subset of real space near a portable computing device can be displayed including a set of points of interest (POIs) for direction based service(s) within scope and automatically overlaying POI content on the image data relating to the POIs. In one embodiment, the display is included in an electronic device worn such that the display is substantially in front of an eye, e.g., a heads up display.

17. An electronic device adapted to be worn with a display of the electronic device substantially in front of at least one eye of a user of the electronic device, comprising:
-
a positional component that outputs position information as a function of a location of the electronic device; a directional component that outputs direction information as a function of an orientation of the electronic device; and at least one processor configured to process at least the position information and the direction information to determine at least one point of interest relating to the position information, configured to display, within the display of the electronic device, the at least one point of interest representing geographical space nearby the electronic device, and configured to overlay interactive user interface elements corresponding to the at least one point of interest nearby, overlapping or over the at least one point of interest in the user interface. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21)

22. A method for displaying point of interest information on a mobile device, comprising:
-
determining direction information as a function of a direction of the mobile device; determining position information as a function of a position of the mobile device; determining a set of points of interest within interactive scope of the mobile device based on the direction information and the position information; displaying an image based representation of at least the subset of points of interest; and receiving point of interest advertisement information for at least a subset of the points of interest of the set and automatically overlaying the point of interest advertisement information at pertinent one or more locations of the image based representation associated with at least the subset of points of interest. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26)
