Abstract
Systems and methods for providing contextual environmental information. One embodiment of a method includes detecting a plurality of objects in an environment, identifying at least a portion of the plurality of objects in the environment, and determining a location of a user relative to the plurality of objects. Some embodiments may be configured to determine a desired number of alerts to provide the user based on a characteristic of the user and, in response to determining that the desired number of alerts is less than a number of objects detected in the environment, provide data related to a location of a subset of the plurality of objects, relative to the user.
