Abstract

A method and system for improving wearable device function control is provided. The method includes detecting a first gesture executed by a user. A speed and direction of the first gesture; an eye focus of the user, and a time period associated with eye focus being directed towards a display portion of a wearable device are detected. The first gesture is analyzed with respect to previously determined mapping data, the speed and direction of the first gesture, the eye focus of the user, and the time period. In response, a specified function of the wearable device associated with the first gesture is determined and executed.
