Abstract
One or more processors of an electronic device detect a communication device electronically in communication with a content presentation companion device operating as a primary display for the electronic device and including a first ultra-wide band component. The one or more processors determine, with a second ultra-wide band tag component carried by the electronic device, a distance between the electronic device and the content presentation companion device using an ultra-wide band ranging process. The one or more processors dynamically enhance a user interface of the content presentation companion device as a function of the distance between the electronic device and the content presentation companion device. The enhancing magnifies a user interface element being presented on the content presentation companion device.
