Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for facilitating the presentation of expressive intent and other status information with messaging and other communication applications. The expressive intent is based on expressive effect data associated with the message recipients and/or message senders. The expressive intent can be conveyed through avatars and modified message content. The avatars convey gestures, emotions and other status information and the presentation of the avatars can be reactive to detected state information of the message recipient(s), message sender(s) and/or corresponding messaging device(s).

Abstract: Examples are disclosed that relate to hand gesture-based emojis. One example provides, on a display device, a method comprising receiving hand tracking data representing a pose of a hand in a coordinate system, based on the hand tracking data, recognizing a hand gesture, and identifying an emoji corresponding to the hand gesture. The method further comprises presenting the emoji on the display device, and sending an instruction to one or more other display devices to present the emoji.

Abstract: One example provides a computing device comprising instructions executable to receive information regarding one or more entities in the scene, to receive eye tracking a plurality of eye tracking samples, each eye tracking sample corresponding to a gaze direction of a user and, based at least on the eye tracking samples, determine a time-dependent attention value for each entity of the one or more entities at different locations in a use environment, the time-dependent attention value determined using a leaky integrator. The instructions are further executable to receive a user input indicating an intent to perform a location-dependent action, associate the user input to with a selected entity based at least upon the time-dependent attention value for each entity, and perform the location-dependent action based at least upon a location of the selected entity.
