Abstract

A device to process information is provided. According to an embodiment, a display unit is configured to display computer-generated objects. A processor is configured to receive selection input effective to select a particular computer-generated object from amongst the computer-generated objects. Manipulation input corresponding to detected motions is received. The particular computer-generated object is moved and rotated in its entirety in response to the manipulation input and in accordance with the detected motions. Each of the detected motions has a corresponding time period. A password is generated using the detected motions and the time periods. A user is authenticated by use of the generated password and an identified unrevealed authentication. The authentication of the user includes an indication of an authentication failure when the detected motions are different from an expected input and any of the corresponding time periods are outside of an allowable time range.

Claims

1. A device to process information, the device comprising:

a display; and

a processor coupled to the display and configured to;

direct the display to display multiple computer-generated objects;

receive selection input effective to identify a particular computer-generated object from amongst the displayed multiple computer-generated objects;

receive manipulation input corresponding to a plurality of detected motions, each of the plurality of detected motions having a corresponding time period of a plurality of time periods;

direct the display to display movement and rotation of the particular computer-generated object in its entirety in at least one direction in accordance with the plurality of detected motions corresponding to the manipulation input;

generate a password using the plurality of detected motions and the plurality of time periods; and

authenticate a user by use of the generated password and an identified unrevealed authentication, wherein authentication of the user includes an indication of an authentication failure when the plurality of detected motions are different from an expected input and any of the corresponding time periods are outside of an allowable time range.

2. The device of claim 1, wherein the display includes a head-mounted display.

3. The device of claim 1, wherein the manipulation input corresponding to the plurality of detected motions is received via a wearable input device.

4. The device of claim 1, wherein the manipulation input corresponding to the plurality of detected motions is received via a wearable input device configured to be worn on a hand.

5. The device of claim 1, wherein the manipulation input corresponding to the plurality of detected motions is received via a virtual reality input glove.

6. The device of claim 1, wherein the manipulation input corresponding to the plurality of detected motions is received via a virtual reality finger cap.

7. The device of claim 1, wherein the manipulation input corresponding to the plurality of detected motions is received via a picture-capture unit.

8. The device of claim 7, wherein the processor is further configured to analyze real image data received via the picture-capture unit to detect a shape of a user'"'"'s body.

9. The device of claim 8, wherein the processor is further configured to instruct the picture-capture unit to zoom in or zoom out.

10. The device of claim 8, wherein the display is further configured to display a real image of at least a portion of the user'"'"'s body.

11. The device of claim 10, wherein the processor is further configured to adjust a size of the particular computer-generated object based at least in part on a size of the displayed real image of the at least the portion of the user'"'"'s body.

12. The device of claim 1, wherein the display includes a touch sensor unit and the plurality of detected motions is received via the touch sensor unit.

13. The device of claim 1, wherein the manipulation input corresponding to the plurality of detected motions is received via a touch sensor unit separate from the display.

14. The device of claim 1, wherein the manipulation input corresponding to the plurality of detected motions is received via a computer mouse.

15. A device to process information, the device comprising:

a head-mounted display configured to display multiple computer-generated objects;

a wearable virtual reality input device; and

a processor coupled to the head-mounted display and to the wearable virtual reality input device, the processor configured to;

receive selection input effective to select a particular computer-generated object from amongst the displayed multiple computer-generated objects via the wearable virtual reality input device;

receive manipulation input corresponding to a plurality of detected motions via the wearable virtual reality input device;

move and rotate the particular computer-generated object in its entirety in at least one direction in response to the manipulation input corresponding to the plurality of detected motions and in accordance with the plurality of detected motions, each of the plurality of detected motions having a corresponding time period of a plurality of time periods;

generate a password using the plurality of detected motions and the plurality of time periods; and

authenticate a user by use of the generated password and an identified unrevealed authentication, wherein authentication of the user includes an indication of an authentication failure when the plurality of detected motions are different from an expected input and any of the corresponding time periods are outside of an allowable time range.

16. The device of claim 15, wherein the wearable virtual reality input device includes a glove.

17. The device of claim 16, wherein the processor is further configured to instruct the head-mounted display to display a graphical image of a virtual hand overlapped with the particular computer-generated object.

18. A device to process information, the device comprising:

a display unit configured to display multiple computer-generated objects;

a picture-capture unit configured to receive real image data; and

a processor coupled to the display and configured to;

analyze the real image data to detect a shape of a user'"'"'s body;

receive, via the picture-capture unit, selection input effective to select a particular computer-generated object from amongst the displayed multiple computer-generated objects;

receive, via the picture-capture unit, manipulation input corresponding to a plurality of detected motions;
