Method and apparatus for selectively presenting content

Abstract

A method, system, apparatus, and/or device for displaying a portion of data so as to not obstruct a portion of a central visual field. The method, system, apparatus, and/or device may include a display configured to display data and a processing device coupled to the display. The processing device may be configured to determine a position of an eye of a viewer with respect to the display, define a first region of the display substantially corresponding with a peripheral vision field of the eye, define a second region of the display substantially corresponding with a central visual field of the eye, send a first portion of the data to be displayed at the first region, and send a second portion of the data to be displayed at the second output region such that a portion of the central visual field is unobstructed by the second portion of the data.

1 . A method, comprising:
 determining, by a processing device, an orientation of an eye;   defining, by the processing device, a first vision field of the eye;   defining, by the processing device, a second vision field of the eye;   displaying, by a display, a first portion of a virtual object within the first vision field of the eye;   displaying by the display, a second portion of the virtual object within the second vision field of the eye with a portion of the second vision field unobstructed by the second portion of the virtual object;   identifying, by the processing device, a change in the orientation of the eye;   adjusting, by the processing device, at least one of the first vision field or the second vision field of the eye in view of the change in the orientation of the eye to obtain an adjusted first vision field or an adjusted second vision field; and   displaying, by the display, at least one of the adjusted first vision field or the adjusted second vision field.   
     
     
         2 . An apparatus, comprising:
 a display configured to display a virtual object; and   a processing device coupled to the display, wherein the processing device is configured to:
 determine an orientation of an eye of a viewer; 
 define a first vision field of the eye; 
 define a second vision field of the eye; 
 display, via the display, first data representative of a first portion of the virtual object at the first vision field; and 
 display, via the display, second data representative of a second portion of the virtual object at the second vision field such that a portion of the second vision field is unobstructed by the second portion of the virtual object. 
   
     
     
         3 . A device, comprising:
 a display configured to display data; and   a processing device coupled to the display, wherein the processing device is configured to:
 determine an orientation of an eye of a viewer; 
 define a first vision field of the eye; 
 define a second vision field of the eye; 
 send, to the display, a first portion of the data to be displayed at the first vision field; and 
 send, to the display, a second portion of the data to be displayed at the second vision field with a portion of the second vision field unobstructed by the second portion of the data.
