  • Publication number: 20230367861
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems and methods for authorization of a user in a spatial 3D environment. The systems and methods can include receiving a request from an application executing on a mixed reality display system to authorize the user with a web service, displaying to the user an authorization window configured to accept user input associated with authorization by the web service and to prevent the application or other applications from receiving the user input, communicating the user input to the web service, receiving an access token from the web service, in which the access token is indicative of successful authorization by the web service, and communicating the access token to the application for authorization of the user. The authorization window can be a modal window displayed in an immersive mode by the mixed reality display system.

  • Publication number: 20230267697
    Abstract: Described are improved systems and methods for navigation and manipulation of interactable objects in a 3D mixed reality environment. Improved systems and methods are provided to implement physical manipulation for creation and placement of interactable objects, such as browser windows and wall hangings. A method includes receiving data indicating a selection of an interactable object contained within a first prism at the start of a user interaction. The method also includes receiving data indicating an end of the user interaction with the interactable object. The method further includes receiving data indicating a physical movement of the user corresponding to removing the interactable object from the first prism between the start and the end of the user interaction. Moreover, the method includes creating a second prism to contain the data associated with the interactable object at the end of the user interaction with the interactable object.

  • Publication number: 20230229381
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program product for displaying virtual content with a wearable display device that in response to identifying a first change from a first field of view to a second field of view, determines, based at least in part upon attribute(s) or criterion (criteria), first virtual content element(s) and second virtual content element(s) from the set that match to first surface(s) within the first field of view, determines second surface(s) within the second field of view based at least in part upon attribute(s) or criterion (criteria), the second surface(s) matching to the second virtual content element(s), moves the first virtual content element(s) from the first surface(s) to the second surface(s), and maintains the second virtual content element(s) with respect to the first surface(s) while the first field of view has been changed into the second field of view.

  • Patent number: 11645034
    Abstract: Systems and methods for adjusting display of virtual content when a wearable display device detects a trigger event to change display of content that is relative to a physical or virtual surface. The method includes displaying content relative to a first surface, detecting a trigger that is one of motion or content driven; and adjusting display of the content to a user-centric virtual surface in the user's field of view.

  • Publication number: 20220413681
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to systems and methods for displaying three-dimensional (3D) content in a spatial 3D environment. The systems and methods can include receiving a request from web domain to display 3D content of certain dimensions at a location within the spatial 3D environment, identifying whether the placement is within an authorized portion of the spatial 3D environment, expanding the authorized portion of the 3D spatial environment to display the 3D content based on a user authorization to resize the authorized portion, and displaying the 3D content.

  • Publication number: 20220292788
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for managing and displaying web pages and web resources in a virtual three-dimensional (3D) space with an extended reality system. These techniques receive an input for 3D transform for a web page or a web page panel therefor. In response to the input, a browser engine coupled to a processor of an extended reality system determines 3D transform data for the web page or the web page panel based at least in part upon the 3D transform of the web page or the web page panel, wherein the 3D transform comprises a change in 3D position, rotation, or scale of the web page or the web page panel therefor in a virtual 3D space. A universe browser engine may present contents of the web page in a virtual 3D space based at least in part upon the 3D transform data.

  • Publication number: 20210263624
    Abstract: Disclosed is an improved systems and method for navigation and manipulation of browser windows in a 3D mixed reality environment. An improved approach is provided to view a user's windows, regardless of the current location for the user relative to one or more previously-opened windows. A method for displaying windows in a computing environment includes receiving an instruction to select multiple open windows. The method also includes retrieving information for the multiple open windows, where the multiple open windows are associated with different physical locations. The method further includes displaying a representation of the multiple open windows in a single user interface. Moreover, the method includes upon receiving a selection of a selected window of the multiple open windows, loading the selected window into a foreground of a field of view for a user.
