  • Publication number: 20240257478
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that provide an XR environment that depicts an environment with a viewing portal for viewing an added content item that is positioned behind the viewing portal. Some implementations determine a first position for a viewing portal within a 3D coordinate system corresponding to an environment, determine a second position for a content item within the 3D coordinate system, where the second position is opposite a front surface of the viewing portal, and determine a viewpoint of an electronic device within the 3D coordinate system. In some implementations, a portion of the content item visible through the viewing portal from the viewpoint is identified, where the portion is identified based on the first position, the second position, and the viewpoint. Then, a view of the identified portion of the content item is provided in the environment.

  • Publication number: 20240040099
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that modify a video to enable replay of the video with a depth-based effect based on gaze of a user during capture or playback of the video. For example, an example process may include tracking a gaze direction during a capture or a playback of a video, wherein the video includes a sequence of frames including depictions of a three-dimensional (3D) environment, identifying a portion of the 3D environment depicted in the video based on the gaze direction, determining a depth of the identified portion of the 3D environment, and modifying the video to enable replay of the video with a depth-based effect based on the depth of the identified portion.
