Initiating Actions on Wearable Devices

摘要

A user selects an appliance or other device to control using a wearable computing device, such as an augmented eyewear device, for example. Based on the selection, data regarding a current operating state and one or more subsequent operating states are provided for display to the user. Using the wearable computing device, the user selects one of the subsequent states and controls the appliance to transition from its current state to the selected subsequent state. The commands for controlling the transition may be proxied for the wearable computing device by a mobile device or a network server, for example, via one or more established communication links.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
classifying a device to be controlled by a user, wherein the device is selected by the user via a wearable computing device and is positioned within a field of view of the user; querying the device for device state information, wherein the device state information comprises information indicating a current state for the device and a subsequent state for the device; receiving the device state information from the device; and sending the device state information to the wearable computing device, wherein the device state information configures the wearable computing device to control a transition of the device selected by the user from the current state to the subsequent state.
