Methods to pan, zoom, crop, and proportionally move on a head mountable display
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- displaying at least one viewable object on a display provided by a head-mountable device (HMD) configured with a hand-movement input device, wherein the HMD is configured to receive head-movement data corresponding to head movements and to receive hand-movement data corresponding to inputs from the hand-movement input device;
receiving head-movement data at the HMD;
panning the at least one viewable object on the display based on the head-movement data;
receiving hand-movement data at the HMD;
zooming the at least one viewable object on the display based on the hand-movement data;
receiving, at the HMD, an indication that navigation of the at least one viewable object is complete, wherein the navigation of the at least one viewable object includes panning the at least one viewable object on the display based on the head-movement data, and zooming the at least one viewable object on the display based on the hand-movement data;
determining whether a cropping mode is activated using the HMD; and
responsive to determining that the cropping mode is activated, the HMD generating a cropped image of the at least one viewable object on the display resulting from the navigation of the at least one viewable object being complete.

Abstract
Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media are described herein related to displaying and cropping viewable objects. A viewable object can be displayed on a display of a head-mountable device (HMD) configured with a hand-movement input device. The HMD can receive both head-movement data corresponding to head movements and hand-movement data from the hand-movement input device. The viewable object can be panned on the display based on the head-movement data. The viewable object can be zoomed on the display based on the hand-movement data. The HMD can receive an indication that navigation of the viewable object is complete. The HMD can determine whether a cropping mode is activated. After determining that the cropping mode is activated, the HMD can generate a cropped image of the viewable object on the display when navigation is complete.

12. An apparatus, including a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon program instructions that, upon execution by a computing device, cause the apparatus to perform functions comprising:
-
displaying at least one viewable object on a display, wherein the apparatus is configured to receive head-movement data corresponding to head movements and to receive hand-movement data corresponding to inputs from a hand-movement input device; panning the at least one viewable object on the display based on received head-movement data; zooming the at least one viewable object on the display based on received hand-movement data; receiving an indication that navigation of the at least one viewable object is complete, wherein the navigation of the at least one viewable object includes panning the at least one viewable object on the display based on the head-movement data, and zooming the at least one viewable object on the display based on the hand-movement data; determining whether a cropping mode is activated; and responsive to determining that the cropping mode is activated, generating a cropped image of the at least one viewable object on the display resulting from the navigation of the at least one viewable object being complete. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computing device, comprising:
-
a hand-movement input device; a display; a processor; and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon program instructions that, upon execution by the processor, cause the computing device to perform operations comprising; displaying at least one viewable object on the display, wherein the computing device is configured to receive head-movement data corresponding to head movements and to receive hand-movement data corresponding to inputs from the hand-movement input device; receiving head-movement data; panning the at least one viewable object on the display based on the head-movement data; receiving hand-movement data; zooming the at least one viewable object on the display based on the hand-movement data; receiving an indication that navigation of the at least one viewable object is complete, wherein the navigation of the at least one viewable object includes panning the at least one viewable object on the display based on the head-movement data, and zooming the at least one viewable object on the display based on the hand-movement data; determining whether a cropping mode is activated; and responsive to determining that the cropping mode is activated, generating a cropped image of the at least one viewable object on the display resulting from the navigation of the at least one viewable object being complete. - View Dependent Claims (20)
