PROVIDING CONTEXTUAL PERSONAL INFORMATION BY A MIXED REALITY DEVICE
First Claim
1. One or more processor-readable storage devices having instructions encoded thereon for causing one or more software controlled processors to execute a method for providing contextual personal information by a mixed reality display device system, the method comprising:
- receiving and storing person selection criteria associated with a user wearing the mixed reality display device system;
sending a request including a location of the user and the person selection criteria to a personal information service engine executing on one or more remote computer systems for a personal identification data set for each person sharing the location and satisfying the person selection criteria;
receiving at least one personal identification data set from the personal identification service engine for a person sharing the location;
determining whether the person associated with the at least one personal identification data set is in the field of view of the mixed reality display device system; and
responsive to the person associated with the at least one personal identification data set being in the field of view, outputting data which identifies the person in the field of view.

Abstract
The technology provides contextual personal information by a mixed reality display device system being worn by a user. A user inputs person selection criteria, and the display system sends a request for data identifying at least one person in a location of the user who satisfy the person selection criteria to a cloud based application with access to user profile data for multiple users. Upon receiving data identifying the at least one person, the display system outputs data identifying the person if he or she is within the field of view. An identifier and a position indicator of the person in the location is output if not. Directional sensors on the display device may also be used for determining a position of the person. Cloud based executing software can identify and track the positions of people based on image and non-image data from display devices in the location.

8. A method for providing contextual personal information to a user, head mounted, mixed reality, display device system comprising:
-
receiving a request indicating a location of a user head mounted, mixed reality display device system and person selection criteria for at least one personal identification data set for each person sharing the location and satisfying the person selection criteria; determining whether there is a person sharing the location and satisfying the person selection criteria based on accessible user profile data; responsive to there being a person sharing the location and satisfying the person selection criteria, generating at least one personal identification data set for the person; determining whether the person associated with the at least one personal identification data set is currently within a field of view of the user head mounted, mixed reality, display device system; responsive to the person not being currently within the field of view of the user display device system, determining a position of the person within the location, and sending the position in the at least one personal identification data set; and responsive to the person being currently within the field of view of the user display device system, sending the at least one personal identification data set including a personal identifier for the person in the field of view. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A see-through, head mounted, mixed reality display device system for providing contextual personal information comprising:
-
a see-through, mixed reality display positioned by a head mounted support structure; at least one front facing camera positioned on the support structure for capturing image data of a field of view of the see-through display; one or more directional sensors attached to the support structure, each having a sensor position with reference to a body part of the user and transmitting an identity data set including the sensor position; one or more software controlled processors communicatively coupled to the at least one front facing camera for receiving the image data of the field of view; the one or more software controlled processors being communicatively coupled to a remote computer system executing a personal information service engine for sending a request with person selection criteria and a location of a user wearing the head mounted support structure, and receiving a personal identification data set of each person sharing the location and satisfying the person selection criteria; and at least one image generation unit communicatively coupled to the one or more software controlled processors and optically coupled to the see-through, mixed reality display for tracking virtual data to a person sharing the location and satisfying the person selection criteria in a field of view of the see-through display. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
