FIGS. 6A & 6B depict one embodiment of a real world field of view 600 viewable through an AR device 602 which includes one or more stress-inducing elements 601, that is, one or more people in the case of a user with a social anxiety disorder. In these figures, FIG. 6A represents the actual real world field of view without any augmentation, while FIG. 6B depicts an augmented real world field of view seen by the user through the augmented reality device, where multiple stress-inducing elements (multiple people in this example) have been removed or hidden from the user's view, while others remain. The ones remaining may be selected or identified to remain, since machine learning predicts there is a possibility or probability that the user's path may intersect with, or come close to the paths of, those remaining individuals.
FIGS. 7A-7B depict a further embodiment of program code processing, in accordance with one or aspects of the present invention.
