Abstract
A method is provided, including: rendering a view of a virtual environment through a virtual reality (VR) headset; detecting a gaze direction of a user that wears the VR headset; detecting a gaze focus depth of the user that wears the VR headset; detecting an electroencephalography (EEG) signal of the user that wears the VR headset; using the gaze direction and gaze focus depth of the user to identify a virtual object in the virtual environment as being actively viewed by the user; using the EEG signal to determine a concentration of the user upon the identified virtual object; responsive to determining the concentration of the user upon the identified virtual object, then rendering a graphical indicator applied to the virtual object in the view of the virtual environment.
