Abstract: One or more sound components are identified, isolated, and processed such that they are relocated to a different location in a sound field of spatial audio content. The one or more sounds may be voices, and in particular voices of a predetermined user.

Abstract: Various multilayer handling techniques for head-mounted display devices may smooth motion of a viewing area that results from head movement, may restrict the viewing area to a defined display boundary, and may variously apply different motion criteria to the content and the viewing area of the head-mounted display devices. This may shift the content and the viewing area of the head-mounted display devices differently, which may in turn cause the content presentation to appear less shaky than if the content were fully head-locked, resulting in a more pleasant and usable viewing experience.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to devices, systems, and methods for presenting a magnified view in an extended reality environment. Specifically, a magnified view includes a zoom reticle that is presented at a display location of a display. The zoom reticle includes magnified content that includes a magnified portion of a user's field of view. For example, the magnified content may be generated from image data selected from a corresponding portion of a field of view of a camera. The position of the zoom reticle on the display, as well as the portion of the field of view that is magnified, may vary in different circumstances such as described herein.

Abstract: A method includes, while presenting a representation of a physical environment of the device, obtaining contextual data that indicates a characteristic of the physical environment, the device or a user of the device, and obtaining an indication of historical content associated with the device. The method includes determining, based on the characteristic indicated by the contextual data and the historical content, a user interest value that indicates a user interest level in the physical environment. The method includes storing an image captured by an image sensor in response to the user interest value being greater than a threshold interest value.

Abstract: In one implementation, a method of localizing a device is performed at a device including one or more processors and non-transitory memory. The method includes obtaining an estimate of a pose of the device in an environment. The method includes obtaining an environmental model of the environment including a spatial feature in the environment defined by a first spatial feature location. The method includes determining a second spatial feature location of the spatial feature based on the estimate of the pose of the device. The method includes determining an updated estimate of the pose of the device based on the first spatial feature location and the second spatial feature location.
