  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18196882 Titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROCESSING USER INPUT FOR MULTIPLE DEVICES'

Simplified Explanation

This abstract describes a method for processing input for multiple devices. The method involves a first electronic device with processors and memory. The device determines the direction of a person's gaze and selects a target electronic device based on this gaze direction. It then receives inputs from an input device and processes them specifically for the target electronic device.


Original Abstract Submitted

In one implementation, a method of processing input for multiple devices is performed by a first electronic device one or more processors and non-transitory memory. The method includes determining a gaze direction. The method includes selecting a target electronic device based on determining that the gaze direction is directed to the target electronic device. The method includes receiving, via an input device, one or more inputs. The method includes processing the one or more inputs based on the target electronic device.
