Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for performing operations comprising: displaying, by one or more processors of an eyewear device, a plurality of media content control options; detecting, by a touch input interface of the eyewear device, a first touch input comprising a single finger touching the touch input interface; based on detecting the first touch input, causing a cursor to track the first touch input to navigate through the plurality of media content control options; based on detecting that the single finger has not been released from touching the touch input interface, displaying a second media content control option related to the first media content control option; and performing a selection associated with the second media content control option based on movement of the single finger along the touch input interface.

Abstract: Eyewear providing an interactive augmented reality experience by displaying virtual 3D content in a 3D frame on a display forming a field of view (FOV). The user can manipulate the displayed 3D frame using control components, such as touchpad of the eyewear device and the mobile device including control components. The 3D frame is displayed around the 3D content to avoid FOV clipping of the 3D content by the display which distracts from the virtual experience and draws attention to the device's limitations. The 3D frame is illustrated as a window positioned in a central portion of a virtual scene displayed on display. The 3D frame can be manipulated with reference to the virtual scene by the user using the control inputs, such as by rotating the 3D frame about a non-visual vertical axis within the virtual scene to create a seamless transition. Upon advancing the 3D frame to the next/previous frame having different 3D content, an event, such as playing animation, can be triggered.
