Abstract
Various implementations that use user activity determined via a first device (e.g., an HMD, tablet, etc.) to provide augmentations corresponding to video content (e.g., a TV show, movie, etc.) that is being presented on a second device (e.g., a TV, monitor, etc.). The first device (e.g., HMD) detects that a user activity (e.g., a user's gaze, gesture, interest) is directed to a portion of a surface corresponding to a video content viewing area provided by the second device (e.g., the TV, monitor, etc.). An element of the video content currently being displayed at that portion of the surface by the second device is identified and used to provide an augmentation that is displayed by the first or second device.
