A system and method for modifying symbology displayed on a head worn display (HWD) based on a quality-of-service value is disclosed. The system includes a head worn display configured to display symbology, a tracking camera, a controller, and a tracking processing unit configured to receive inputs form the tracking camera and transmit a signal quality value to the controller. The controller includes processors and memory with instructions that when executed by the processors, cause the processors to display the symbology on the display, determine a quality-of-service value based on at least the signal quality value, and modify at least one symbol of the symbology based on the quality-of-service value from a default symbol to a degraded symbol if the quality-of-service value changes from a high-quality value to a low-quality value. The system may also receive sensor signals from other sensors, and use the sensor signal to determine the quality-of-service value.

Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to an artificial reality (XR) application system controlling applications in an artificial reality environment. In various cases, these controls include automatically suggesting XR applications by determining an XR context and identifying applications that match the XR context. These applications can be suggested to a user, who can authorize their execution, setting permissions for the application. In some cases, applications can be divided into components which can be progressively downloaded. By providing application suggestions relevant to the current context and progressively downloading application components, applications can appear ambient, rather than relying on users to constantly download, install, or activate applications. Permissions for applications may be revoked permanently or for certain situations—either through user permissions selections or automatically in response to determined user intents. When multiple applications are simultaneously authorized to execute, the XR application system can employ a ranking system to prevent overcrowding.

[Object] To reduce power consumption even more. [Solution] Provided is a communication control device including a communication necessity information acquisition unit configured to acquire communication necessity information indicating necessity to communicate with an external device, and a drive control unit configured to control drive of a first communication unit and a second communication unit on a basis of the acquired communication necessity information, the first communication unit communicating with the external device using a first communication mode, the second communication unit communicating with the external device using a second communication mode capable of transferring data at a rate higher than the first communication mode. The drive control unit controls a drive state of each of the first communication unit and the second communication unit to be set to one of an active state capable of communicating with the external device, a power-saving state having lower power consumption than the active state, and an inactive state being a power off state.

A device and a method of providing an augmented reality service in an electronic device by interworking with another electronic device is provided. A first electronic device includes a communication circuit, a camera, a sensor, a display device, and a processor, the display device, the sensor, and the camera, the processor configured to establish communication with a second electronic device, obtain information on at least one object included in a field of view of a user wearing the first electronic device through the camera or the sensor, obtain information on a user's gaze, determine whether to interwork with the second electronic device for an augmented reality service, based on the information on the user's gaze and the information on the at least one object, and when it is determined to interwork with the second electronic device, transmit interworking information on the augmented reality service to the second electronic device.

Provided is a virtual reality (VR) device, system and framework for generating VR continuum experience choreographed to a physical procedure incorporating at least one procedural action associated with a physical sensation and potentially inducing an anxiety or pain response. The VR continuum experience can modify perceptions of pain and anxiety associated with the procedure. The virtual reality device is configured to allow device control via a device user interface accessible to an operator other than the wearer (i.e. a medical practitioner), to allow the operator to control device calibration and virtual reality (VR) experience start while the apparatus is worn by the wearer, and to provide one or more VR experiences each associated with a physical procedure.

Provided here are systems and method for non-intrusive authentication of a user. Such systems and methods may include in an embodiment a waveform generator to generate a message, encrypt the message, and transmit the encrypted message to one or more transmitters. The system may include a decryption engine to receive a bone conduction signal from one or more receivers, process the bone conduction signal, decrypt the processed bone conduction signal, and separate a bone conduction token portion from the decrypted bone conduction signal. The system may include an authentication engine to analyze the bone conduction signal, authenticate a user for the operation detected based on a comparison of the analyzed bone conduction signal and the pilot portion of the message exceeding a preselected threshold, and verify bone conduction signal authenticity via the bone conduction token portion and the token portion.

Systems and methods are provided for determining when to cease capturing video via a head-worn wearable device. The method includes capturing, via a head-worn wearable device that includes a camera, video data. The method further includes, while capturing the video data, monitoring sensor data indicating one or both of (i) a position of the head-worn wearable device and (ii) a position of a wrist-wearable device that is communicatively coupled with the head-worn device to determine when to cease capturing the video data. The method further includes, in accordance with a determination that at least some of the sensor data indicates that one or both of (i) a video-capturing precondition is not present at the head-worn wearable device and (ii) a video-viewing precondition is present at the wrist-wearable device, ceasing to capture the video data and causing the video data to be displayed on a display of the wrist-wearable device.
