ORIENTING DISPLAYED ELEMENTS RELATIVE TO A USER
First Claim
1. A method for orienting elements displayed on a display component of an electronic device, the method comprising:
- initially displaying one or more elements on a display component of an electronic device;
after initially displaying the one or more elements on the display component of the electronic device, capturing an image of a user of the electronic device;
based on the captured image of the user of the electronic device, determining an orientation of the electronic device relative to the user; and
based on the determined orientation of the electronic device relative to the user, adjusting an orientation of at least one of the displayed elements relative to the display component of the electronic device.

Abstract
One or more elements are initially displayed on a display component of an electronic device. After the one or more elements have been displayed on the display component of the electronic device, an image of a user of the electronic device is captured, and an orientation of the electronic device relative to the user is determined based on the captured image of the user of the electronic device. Thereafter, an orientation of at least one of the displayed elements is adjusted relative to the display component of the electronic device based on the determined orientation of the electronic device relative to the user.

30. A method for orienting elements displayed on a display component of an electronic device, the method comprising:
-
capturing an image of a user of an electronic device that has a display component; based on the captured image of the user of the electronic device, determining an initial orientation of the electronic device relative to the user of the electronic device; before displaying an element on a display component of the electronic device, determining an initial orientation for displaying the element relative to the display component of the electronic device based on the determined initial orientation of the electronic device relative to the user of the electronic device; and displaying the element on the display component of the electronic device with the determined initial orientation for displaying the element relative to the display component.
