Abstract
Various embodiments provide methods and systems for presenting content to users on a computing device. In some embodiments, the computing device is configured to determine content or object of interest on the display screen of the computing device by using head position information of the user. For example, the content or object of interest can be extrapolated and determined from a 3D head position of the user and the relative position of the computing device. Depending on the content or object of interest, one or more actions (e.g., zooming in or out, rendering advertisement, or auto-focusing) related to the content or object of interest can be performed on the computing device.
