Abstract
In one implementation, a method of operating a wearable device is performed by a device in a physical environment, the device including a processor, non-transitory memory, and a display. The method includes determining a device operating condition based on whether the device is being worn by a user. The method includes, in response to determining that the device operating condition is a first operating condition corresponding to the device being worn by the user, selectively activating a portion of the display based on a location of a person in the physical environment to display content to the person. The method includes, in response to determining that the device operating condition is a second operating condition corresponding to the device being unworn by the user, activating at least a portion of the display based on a content type of content to display the content.
