Generating in a gaze tracking device augmented reality representations for objects in a user line-of-sight

Abstract:

Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for generating in a gaze tracking device augmented reality representations for objects in a user line-of-sight. A determination is made of user coordinates of a user position and coordinates of an axis of a line-of-sight of the user from the gaze tracking device. Requested object information is received indicating objects along the axis of the line-of-sight at different distances from the user position, including a first object in the line-of-sight that is visible to the user at a first distance from the user position and at least one additional object. Each of the at least one additional object is at a further distance from the user position than the first distance. Descriptions of the objects are rendered to the user in a view of the gaze tracking device along the axis of the line-of-sight.
