Abstract: Systems and methods for enabling communications and feedback with users of virtual reality user interfaces are described. The virtual reality user interface may include a background model, a plurality of cells and subcells, and an interaction area. The interaction area may be positioned at a virtual location of the user, and the interaction area may include a border around its periphery. Responsive to various user inputs or actions, or device or system states or conditions, visual characteristics of the interaction area and border may be selected and rendered to provide communications and feedback to a user. In addition, the interaction area and border may receive voice inputs provided by users. Accordingly, the interaction area and border may provide communications and feedback with users of virtual reality user interfaces.

Abstract: Systems and methods related to user interfaces for object exploration and manipulation within virtual reality environments may include a plurality of user interfaces that are presented responsive to various user inputs or interactions. For example, a first user interface may comprise a hover card that is presented responsive to a hover indication over an object, a second user interface may comprise a detail card that is presented responsive to a selection input associated with an object, and a third user interface may comprise a detail page having a plurality of detail panels that are presented responsive to a selection of a full details option associated with an object. Further, individual detail cards and detail panels may be graspable, movable, scrollable, and otherwise manipulatable by a user to facilitate object exploration.

Abstract: Systems and methods related to user interfaces for virtual reality environments may include two-dimensional grid view user interfaces and three-dimensional side-by-side view user interfaces, and associated transitions therebetween. The two-dimensional grid view user interfaces may present images or models of a plurality of objects to users in a substantially flat, two-dimensional grid for viewing of objects. The three-dimensional side-by-side view user interfaces may present models of a plurality of objects to users in a substantially open, three-dimensional area for viewing and evaluation of three-dimensional models of objects.

Abstract: Systems and methods related to generating and modifying a room or space within a virtual reality environment may comprise addition, removal, placement, modification, and/or resizing of a plurality of environment surfaces, such as a floor, walls, and ceiling, and/or a plurality of fixtures, such as doors, windows, or openings, associated with the environment surfaces, in which each environment surface and fixture includes associated dimensions. The environment surfaces and fixtures may be added, removed, placed, moved, and/or resized by a user. During such interactions, only a subset of dimensions relevant to the current functions or operations by the user may be presented to facilitate such functions or operations. Further, various aspects associated with environment surfaces and fixtures may be modified, such as paints, colors, materials, textures, or others.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a refreshable braille display accessory for a game controller that includes a housing sized to be received by a handheld game controller, a braille display including a plurality of pins arranged in a plurality of braille cells, each of the plurality of braille cells to provide tactile feedback representative of individual braille characters, and a control circuit enclosed within the housing to control refreshable activation of at least a portion of the plurality of pins based at least in part on a translation of game text or game audio.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a braille chording accessory for a game controller that includes a housing sized to be removably received by a handheld game controller, a plurality of paddles arranged as a braille cell on the housing, and a control circuit to translate a touch force applied to at least a portion of the plurality of paddles into individual braille characters.
