Abstract
A method pairs content from a specific area in virtual space with a graphics driver for a physical display. An augmented reality device defines a virtual space, which is delimited by a spatial border that is created by the augmented reality device and is visible only to a user of the augmented reality device. One or more processors associate the virtual space with a graphics driver from a plurality of graphics drivers. A signal indicating a virtual space selection gesture is generated by the augmented reality device in response to the user making a physical motion that selects the virtual space, and sent to a video adapter hardware card. In response to receiving the signal indicating the virtual space selection gesture, the video adapter hardware card implements the graphics driver to display content associated with the virtual space on the physical display.
