  • Publication number: 20230350504
    Abstract: Systems and methods for interacting with virtual objects in a three-dimensional space using a wearable system are disclosed. The wearable system can be programmed to permit user interaction with interactable objects in a field of regard (FOR) of a user. The FOR includes a portion of the environment around the user that is capable of being perceived by the user via the AR system. The system can determine a group of interactable objects in the FOR of the user and determine a pose of the user. The system can update, based on a change in the pose or a field of view (FOV) of the user, a subgroup of the interactable objects that are located in the FOV of the user and receive a selection of a target interactable object from the subgroup of interactable objects. The system can initiate a selection event on the target interactable object.

  • Publication number: 20220244776
    Abstract: A wearable device can have a field of view through which a user can perceive real or virtual objects. The device can display a visual aura representing contextual information associated with an object that is outside the user's field of view. The visual aura can be displayed near an edge of the field of view and can dynamically change as the contextual information associated with the object changes, e.g., the relative position of the object and the user (or the user's field of view) changes.

  • Publication number: 20220230404
    Abstract: Examples of systems and methods for a wearable system to automatically select or filter available user interface interactions or virtual objects are disclosed. The wearable system can select a group of virtual objects for user interaction based on contextual information associated with the user, the user's environment, physical or virtual objects in the user's environment, or the user's physiological or psychological state.
