Abstract

Operating an application in response to spatial status of objects within a physical environment in which the application operates. A system detects the spatial status (e.g., orientation, movement, position, and so forth) of multiple environmental objects that operate within a physical environment from which input is provided to, and to which output is provided from, an application. The relationship between at least some different environmental objects result in altered a behavior of the application. The spatial status of at least some of the environmental objects is subject to change. Thus, a mechanism is described that allows an application to adjust in a manner that is highly responsive to the physical environment in which the application interfaces.
