ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240353990 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE CONTROL METHOD
The abstract describes an electronic device that can display virtual reality content, track a user's gaze direction, identify points in the virtual reality environment, display objects accordingly, and interact with virtual objects based on user commands.
- The device includes a sensor, display, and processor for controlling the display.
- It can display virtual reality content based on the user's gaze direction.
- The device can identify points in the virtual reality environment and display objects at those points.
- It can determine the distance between the user and identified points.
- The device can interact with virtual objects based on user commands while displaying other objects in the virtual reality environment.
Potential Applications: - Virtual reality gaming - Training simulations - Architectural visualization - Medical training and simulations

Original Abstract Submitted
an electronic device includes a sensor, a display, and at least one processor configured to control the display to display a virtual reality content corresponding to a virtual reality environment, identify a gaze direction of a user based on data acquired through the sensor, identify a point on the virtual reality environment based on the gaze direction, identify a distance between the user and the identified point in the virtual reality environment, control the display to display a first object at a position corresponding to the identified point in the virtual reality content, identify, based on a user command received while the first object is displayed, whether a virtual object is present within a second object positioned at the identified point in the virtual reality environment, and control the virtual object according to the user command if the virtual object being identified as present.
