Abstract

An augmented reality viewer is described. A user orientation determination module determines a user orientation. A content vector calculator calculates a content orientation vector relative to a near edge and a far edge of content, determines a dot product of the user orientation vector and the content orientation vector, and positions the content based on a magnitude of the dot product. A surface area vector calculator calculates a surface area orientation vector for each of a plurality of surface area. A surface selection module determines a dot product of the user orientation vector and each surface area orientation vector and selects a preferred surface based on the relative magnitude of the dot products.
