Abstract

Systems and methods allow a user to interact with an augmented reality device. In one implementation, a wearable device for controlling operation of an on-board component includes a display; at least one sensor configured to provide an output indicative of a viewing direction of a user; and at least one processing device. The at least one processing device is configured to cause at least one graphical icon associated with a control of at least one aspect of the on-board component to be shown on the display; determine, based on the output of the at least one sensor, whether the user is looking in a direction of the at least one graphical icon; and initiate the control of the at least one aspect of the on-board component when the user is determined to be looking in the direction of the at least one graphical icon.
