Abstract: A method of coordinating artificial-reality (AR) interactions by presenting augmented-reality interaction guides is provided. The method includes, after receiving a user input requesting an augmented-reality assisted interaction to be directed to a physical surface, presenting, via the AR headset, an augmented-reality interaction guide that is (i) co-located with the physical surface, and (ii) presented with a first orientation relative to the AR headset. The method includes obtaining data indicating that a user interaction has caused a modification to the physical surface. And the method includes, responsive to obtaining additional data, via the AR headset, indicating movement of the physical surface relative to the orientation of the AR headset: presenting the augmented-reality interaction guide to appear at the physical surface with a second orientation relative, different than the first orientation.
