  • Publication number: 20240103635
    Abstract: Suppressing a hand gesture upon detecting peripheral events on a peripheral device includes determining a first hand pose for a first hand a second hand pose for a second hand in response to a detected peripheral device peripheral event, determining, based on the first hand pose and the second hand pose, at least one hand of the first hand and the second hand in a peripheral use mode, detecting an input gesture from a hand of the at least one hand determined to be in the peripheral use mode, and rejecting the input gesture by a user input pipeline in accordance with the determination that the hand is in the peripheral use mode. The presence of a peripheral device is confirmed by activating a computer vision system in response to determining that a peripheral use condition is satisfied.

  • Publication number: 20240094825
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology provide improved techniques for gesture recognition. Improved techniques may include detecting and/or classifying an interaction between the body part and another object in a scan of the body part, and then controlling recognition of a gesture based on the interaction. In an aspect, recognition parameters may be selected based on the interaction classification that disable recognition of one or more gestures while not disabling recognition of other gestures.

  • Publication number: 20240036699
    Abstract: While a view of an environment is visible via a display generation component of a computer system, the computer system detects a gaze input directed to a first location, corresponding to a first user interface element, in the environment. In response to detecting the gaze input: if a user's hand is in a predefined configuration during the gaze input, the computer system: provides, to the first user interface element, information about the gaze input; and then, in response to detecting the gaze input moving to a different, second location in the environment while the user's hand is maintained in the predefined configuration, provides, to a second user interface element that corresponds to the second location, information about the gaze input. If the user's hand is not in the predefined configuration during the gaze input, the computer system forgoes providing, to the first user interface element, information about the gaze input.

  • Publication number: 20230333665
    Abstract: Techniques for managing an engagement zone include tracking, by a system, a hand of a user and determining that a height of the hand of the user satisfies a first threshold height. In accordance with determining that the height of the hand of the user satisfies the first threshold height, the techniques also include initiating a UI engagement state, wherein the system monitors the user for user input during the UI engagement state, and determining user input into the system based on a user motion detected while the hand is tracked. The threshold height is associated with a boundary of a UI engagement zone and is modifiable based on user activity.

  • Publication number: 20220253162
    Abstract: Touch-based input devices, such as a stylus, can receive tactile input from a user. The tactile input functions can be performed by a touch sensor, such as a capacitive sensing device. A touch sensor can be integrated into a stylus in a low profile form. Tactile input can be received at the user's natural grip location. Furthermore, the stylus can effectively distinguish between tactile inputs from a user and disregard sustained tactile inputs that are provided while the user simply holds the stylus at the user's natural grip location.
