Abstract

A sensing and display apparatus, comprising: a first phenomenon interface configured to operatively interface with a first augmediated-reality space, and a second phenomenon interface configured to operatively interface with a second augmediated-reality space, is implemented as an extramissive spatial imaging digital eye glass.

Claims

1. An apparatus, comprising:

at least one input tracking sensor;

at least one head-mounted output display;

at least one computational device communicatively coupled to the at least one input tracking sensor and at least one head mounted output display, wherein the at least one computational devices is configured to issue processor-readable program instructions, comprising;

providing a plurality of icons for display by the at least one head-mounted output display, the plurality of icons configured for selection;

receiving user gesture data from the at least one input tracking sensor, the user gesture data indicating selection of at least one icon from the plurality of icons;

determining a hierarchy of icons based on the user gesture data indicating the selection of the at least one icon; and

providing at least part of the hierarchy of icons for display by the at least one head-mounted output display.
