20. A wearable augmented reality computing device, comprising:
-
a see-through display device; a graphical user interface displayed via the see-through display device; a sensor system including one or more sensors; a logic subsystem; and a storage subsystem comprising instructions stored thereon that are executable by the logic subsystem to; detect one or more objects located outside a field of view of the see-through display device available for the display of augmented reality imagery; and for each object of the one or more objects, providing indications to the user of presence and direction of the object located outside the field of view; and vary the indications provided to the user based on one or more of a change in a location of the object relative to the see-through display device, a distance of the object from the see-through display device, and a property of the object.
