  • Patent number: 11507183
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to resolving natural language ambiguities with respect to a simulated reality setting. In an exemplary embodiment, a simulated reality setting having one or more virtual objects is displayed. A stream of gaze events is generated from the simulated reality setting and a stream of gaze data. A speech input is received within a time period and a domain is determined based on a text representation of the speech input. Based on the time period and a plurality of event times for the stream of gaze events, one or more gaze events are identified from the stream of gaze events. The identified one or more gaze events is used to determine a parameter value for an unresolved parameter of the domain.
