Abstract
A system for communicating interactive instructions to a user intercepts video and audio information from an information handling system hosting a game, analyzes where a user is looking and listens for user commands, generates a list of candidate targets, selects a target profile for each candidate target, applies a prioritization policy to select a target from the list of candidate targets, and communicates haptic information to the user to signal an action to take relative to the selected target. The target may be a threat that the user must engage or evade, an object the user must get or avoid, a location the user must move to or avoid, or a route the user must take to attack or evade a threat or achieve a reward.
