Claim:
1. A method of exchanging audio-visual communication information between users, the method comprising: detecting, using an image capturing device associated with a wearable communication device, an image reflecting surface disposed in an environment of a first user, the image capturing device being forward-facing relative to the first user and embedded in the wearable communication device; detecting, using a processing device, a first boundary of the image reflecting surface in response to the image reflecting surface being detected in the environment of the first user by the image capturing device; providing a tactile signal of variable strength to a first side of the wearable communication device in response to a sensory detection signal associated with a direction of movement of an image of the first user reflected from the image reflecting surface, the image being shifted outside the first boundary of the image reflecting surface, the tactile signal guiding the direction of movement of the first user towards the first boundary of the image reflecting surface, the first boundary corresponding with the first side of the wearable communication device; selecting an area of the image reflecting surface which defines an area associated with at least a portion of a first image within the first boundary of the image reflecting surface; selecting, using the processing device, the portion of the first image displayed on the image reflecting surface within the first boundary of the image reflecting surface, the portion of the first image being associated with the area of the image reflecting surface; and displaying, using a display device embedded in the wearable communication device, the portion of the first image as an overlay on a second image to a second user, the portion of the first image overlaying the second image, thereby being viewable by the first user.
