Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods are provided for line of sight, hands free interaction with interactive objects within a defined space on a line of sight basis. The system can include a base station in communication with one or more interactive objects having a variety of display options. Details about the display options are stored on the system along with the location of the interactive objects and layout of the surroundings of the interactive object. Users can carry devices that are in communication with the base station and that determine the user's location and head orientation and relay that information to the base station. Using the location and orientation of the user, the location of the interactive objects and the layout information about the surrounding area, the system can determine if the user is looking directly at an interactive object and can cause the interactive object to perform an action.
