  • USER AVATAR MOVEMENT CONTROL USING AN AUGMENTED REALITY EYEWEAR DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240152217
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for performing operations on an augmented reality (AR) device. The system accesses, by the AR device, movement data comprising inertial measurement data and camera data. The system determines three-dimensional (3D) movement of the AR device based on the movement data. The system presents, by the AR device, an AR object on a real-world environment being viewed using the AR device. The system, in response to determining the 3D movement of the AR device, modifies the AR object by the AR device.
    Type: Application

  • EXTERNAL CONTROLLER FOR AN EYEWEAR DEVICE
    Publication number: 20240050856
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for using an external controller with an AR device. The system establishes, by one or more processors of the AR device, a communication with an external client device. The system overlays, by the AR device, a first AR object on a real-world environment being viewed using the AR device. The system receives interaction data from the external client device representing one or more inputs received by the external client device and, in response, modifies the first AR object by the AR device.
