Abstract:
In one example, an electronic device may include a display screen defining a plurality of display regions. Further, the electronic device may include a camera to capture an image of an operator of the electronic device. Furthermore, the electronic device may include a controller operatively coupled to the camera and the display screen. The controller may detect an orientation of the operator's face with respect to the display screen using the captured image. Further, the controller may determine a first display region of the plurality of display regions corresponding to the detected orientation of the operators face. Furthermore, the controller may activate the first display region to position a cursor of a pointing device within the first display region.
