Abstract
In one aspect, a first device may include at least one processor, a display accessible to the at least one processor, and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to present an icon on the display so that the icon appears disposed within the real world at or proximate to a location of a second device associated with the icon. The second device may be different from the first device and exist in the real world. The instructions may also be executable to identify a user of the first device as looking at the icon, receive audible input from the user, and issue a command to the second device to execute at least one function in conformance with the audible input based on the identification of the user as looking at the icon.
