Abstract
This disclosure relates to displaying a user interface for a computing device based upon a user intent determined via a spatial intent model. One example provides a computing device comprising a see-through display, a logic subsystem, and a storage subsystem. The storage subsystem comprises instructions executable by the logic machine to receive, via an eye-tracking sensor, eye tracking samples each corresponding to a gaze direction of a user, based at least on the eye tracking samples, determine a time-dependent attention value for a location in a field of view of the see-through display, based at least on the time-dependent attention value for the location, determine an intent of the user to interact with a user interface associated with the location that is at least partially hidden from a current view, and in response to determining the intent, display via the see-through display the user interface.
