Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to creating virtual doors within artificial reality (XR) universes for traversal within that XR universe and between other XR universes. Users can create virtual doors that control access to their privately owned property (e.g., world, parcel, house, etc.) in an XR universe. For example, an owner of a virtual door can manually lock the door to prevent any user from entering their property through the virtual door. As another example, an owner of a virtual door can configure door permissions and/or privacy settings that serve as heuristics by which a door access control manager determines whether to authorize a particular user, XR world, and/or XR universe to access. The XR universe traversal system can control an execution environment to smoothly transition between different applications, thereby enabling a user to traverse between different XR universes without having to leave the XR environment.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to systems for capturing, recording, and playing back steps for building objects and structures in an artificial reality (XR) world. A teacher or creator can initiate a capture context within a build mode of an XR application, during which steps (and potentially other metadata) of a building process are recorded and stored. A XR world building engine can generate an interactive replay of the recorded building process that allows another user to view the building process within an XR environment at the user's preferred pace and/or from different perspectives. In some implementations, the XR world building engine can generate a replay of the teacher's or creator's avatar performing the building process, such that the user can view the building process from a third person perspective and perform the same steps to learn how to build objects and structures in an XR world.

Abstract: Implementations can provide a virtual separate space with respect to a virtual venue hosting a virtual reality (VR) experience, such as a concert, a sports game, a meeting, etc., e.g., to replicate the feeling of a side conversation to discuss the VR experience. Some implementations can create a more intimate experience for users viewing a VR experience by providing a quiet, curated space that can be customized, e.g., by changing the look of users' avatars and their virtual environment, without their interactions being observed by others viewing the VR experience at the virtual venue. The virtual separate space can include a moderated version of the VR experience, such as a smaller version of the VR experience with the sounds of the VR experience muffled. Thus, users within the virtual separate space can step away from the VR experience to enter a more controlled environment, while still enjoying the VR experience.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods provide a tool for project and organizational risk awareness and management. The tool may take the form of a set of user interface elements, a set of processes, and a risk management methodology. The tool operates to combine risk assessment experts and technology experts into a common approach or function. This assists in providing a realistic assessment of the risk associated with a project or task, including its impact on an organization as a whole. The integrated risk evaluation and management platform may enable consideration of the mitigation steps that are presently being used, that may be available but are not presently being used, or that are required or should be considered to manage a type or source of risk.
