Directional based commands

Abstract:

A method for directional based commands includes responsive to initializing an augmented reality device associated with a user, establishing a field of view for the augmented reality device associated with the user. The method establishes boundaries for a directional command area, where the directional command area includes a plurality of devices configurable to receive commands from the augmented reality device associated with the user. The method receives a first command performable by at least two devices from the plurality of devices and receives orientation data from the augmented reality device associated with the user. The method determines a first device from the plurality of devices for performing the first command based at least on the orientation data and the field of view of view for the augmented reality device associated with the user and sends the first command to the first device.
