HMD Content Placement Using Audience Engagement Feedback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing devices that display media content items, such as presentation notes, often fix the user's gaze in a single direction, leading to disengagement from the audience due to the user's fixed eye and/or head position, which can be observed by others.
Innovation Solution
A device or system that displays media content items, like presentation notes, at varying positions within the user's field of view based on audience engagement data, allowing the user to appear as if they are looking around the audience, thereby increasing engagement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If media content items are displayed at a fixed location in the user's field of view, then the content is easily accessible and stable, but the user's gaze becomes fixed leading to audience disengagement
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by transitioning from a fixed display location to a dynamic, variable location system. The media content items are displayed at different locations in the user's field of view based on audience engagement data, allowing the display position to change adaptively rather than remaining static, thus resolving the contradiction between stable content access and engaging audience interaction
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback by using audience engagement data to determine display location. The system receives feedback about audience engagement levels and adjusts the content display position accordingly, creating a closed-loop system that adapts to audience reactions and maintains engagement while ensuring content accessibility
2Ease of operation
If the user maintains a fixed head and eye position to view content, then content viewing is stable and easy, but the user appears disengaged to the audience
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts content display locations based on audience engagement data, enabling the presenter to naturally move their gaze and head position while maintaining access to content. This dynamic positioning allows the presenter to appear engaged with the audience without sacrificing viewing stability or comfort
3Device complexity
If content display location is fixed, then the system is simple and stable, but it cannot adapt to audience interaction levels
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms that monitor audience engagement data and automatically adjust content display locations. This feedback-driven adaptation allows the system to respond to audience interaction levels without requiring complex manual control, maintaining relative simplicity while achieving adaptability
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of display location based on audience engagement data. By dynamically modifying the spatial parameters of content presentation, the system adapts to different audience interaction levels while maintaining a relatively simple overall system architecture
Data Source
AI summary
Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods for displaying presentation notes at varying positions within a presenter's field of view. In some implementations, a device includes a display, one or more processors, and a memory. A first portion of a media content item corresponding to a presentation is displayed at a first location in a three-dimensional environment. Audience engagement data corresponding to an engagement level of a member of an audience is received. A second portion of the media content item is displayed at a second location in the three-dimensional environment. The second location is selected based on the audience engagement data.
