Abstract
Techniques are provided for displaying electronic communications using a head mounted display (HMD). Each electronic communication may be displayed to represent a physical object that indentifies it as a specific type or nature of electronic communication. Therefore, the user is able to process the electronic communications more efficiently. In some aspects, computer vision allows a user to interact with the representation of the physical objects. One embodiment includes accessing electronic communications, and determining physical objects that are representative of at least a subset of the electronic communications. A head mounted display (HMD) is instructed how to display a representation of the physical objects in this embodiment.
