Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer system facilitates depth conflict mitigation for a virtual object that is in contact with one or more physical objects in a three-dimensional environment by reducing visual prominence of one or more portions of the virtual object. In some embodiments, a computer system adjusts the visibility of one or more virtual objects in a three-dimensional environment by applying a visual effect to the one or more virtual objects in response to detecting one or more portions of a user. In some embodiments, a computer system modifies visual prominence in accordance with a level of engagement with a virtual object.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to devices, systems, and methods for separately processing an image stream to generate a first set of images for display by a set of displays and a second set of images for storage or transfer as part of a media capture event. Specifically, a first set of images from an image stream may be used to generate a first set of transformed images, and these transformed images may be displayed on a set of displays. A second set of images may be selected from the image stream in response to a capture request associated with a media capture event, and the second set of images may be used to generate a second set of transformed images. A set of output images may be generated from the second set of transformed images, and the set of output images may be stored or transmitted for later viewing.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods for using a gaze vector and head pose information to activate a display interface in an environment. In some implementations, a device includes a sensor for sensing a head pose of a user, a display, one or more processors, and a memory. In various implementations, a method includes displaying an environment comprising a field of view. Based on a gaze vector, it is determined that a gaze of the user is directed to a first location within the field of view. A head pose value corresponding to the head pose of the user is obtained. On a condition that the head pose value corresponds to a motion of the head of the user toward the first location, a user interface is displayed in the environment.

Abstract: Various implementations provide a view of a 3D environment including a portal for viewing a stereo item (e.g., a photo or video) positioned a distance behind the portal. One or more visual effects are provided based on texture of one or more portions of the stereo item, e.g., texture at cutoff or visible edges of the stereo item. The effects change the appearance of the stereo item or the portal itself, e.g., improving visual comfort issues by minimizing window violations or otherwise enhancing the viewing experience. Various implementations provide a view of a 3D environment including an immersive view of a stereo item without using portal. Such a visual effect may be provided to partially obscure the surrounding 3D environment.
