Publication number: 20240087201Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to creating interactive avatars that can be pinned as world-locked artificial reality content. Once pinned, an avatar can interact with the environment according to contextual queues and rules, without active control by the avatar owner. An interactive avatar system can configure the avatar with action rules, visual elements, and settings based on user selections. Once an avatar is configured and pinned to a location by an avatar owner, when other XR devices are at that location, a central system can provide the avatar (with its configurations) to the other XR device. This allows a user of that other XR device to discover and interact with the avatar according to the configurations established by the avatar owner.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 22, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Campbell ORME, Matthew Adam HANSON, Daphne LIANG, Matthew ROBERTS, Fangwei LEE, Bryant Jun-Yao TANG
