Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer system reduces a visual prominence of virtual content relative to a three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, a computer system displays an indication of a physical object in a three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, a computer system reduces a visual prominence of the virtual content and enables a physical object, such as a person, to break through the virtual content, such as based on a determination that the physical object satisfies one or more criteria to constitute a salient social interaction.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device selectively performs operations in response to user inputs depending on whether the inputs are preceded by detecting a ready state. In some embodiments, an electronic device processes user inputs based on an attention zone associated with the user. In some embodiments, an electronic device enhances interactions with user interface elements at different distances and/or angles with respect to a gaze of a user. In some embodiments, an electronic device enhances interactions with user interface elements for mixed direct and indirect interaction modes. In some embodiments, an electronic device manages inputs from two of the user's hands and/or presents visual indications of user inputs. In some embodiments, an electronic device enhances interactions with user interface elements in a three-dimensional environment using visual indications of such interactions. In some embodiments, an electronic device redirects a selection input from one user interface element to another.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device automatically updates the orientation of a virtual object in a three-dimensional environment based on a viewpoint of a user in the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, an electronic device automatically updates the orientation of a virtual object in a three-dimensional environment based on viewpoints of a plurality of users in the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, the electronic device modifies an appearance of a real object that is between a virtual object and the viewpoint of a user in a three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, the electronic device automatically selects a location for a user in a three-dimensional environment that includes one or more virtual objects and/or other users.

Abstract: A computer system facilitates participation in a communication session with one or more participants, including displaying a spatial representation of one of the participants. In response to detecting that a virtual object is in spatial conflict with a first portion of the spatial representation, the computer system displays the portion of the virtual object in spatial conflict with the spatial representation with reduced visual prominence compared to the visual prominence of a portion of the virtual object not in spatial conflict with the spatial representation.

Abstract: Some examples of the disclosure are directed to systems and methods for presenting content in a three-dimensional environment by one or more electronic devices in a multi-user communication session. In some examples, a first electronic device and a second electronic device are communicatively linked in a multi-user communication session, wherein the first electronic device and the second electronic device are configured to display a three-dimensional environment, respectively. In some examples, the first electronic device and the second electronic device are grouped in a first spatial group within the multi-user communication session. In some examples, if the second electronic device determines that the first electronic device changes states (and/or vice versa), the user of the first electronic device and the user of the second electronic device are no longer grouped into the same spatial group within the multi-user communication session.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device emphasizes and/or deemphasizes user interfaces based on the gaze of a user. In some embodiments, an electronic device defines levels of immersion for different user interfaces independently of one another. In some embodiments, an electronic device resumes display of a user interface at a previously-displayed level of immersion after (e.g., temporarily) reducing the level of immersion associated with the user interface. In some embodiments, an electronic device allows objects, people, and/or portions of an environment to be visible through a user interface displayed by the electronic device. In some embodiments, an electronic device reduces the level of immersion associated with a user interface based on characteristics of the electronic device and/or physical environment of the electronic device.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that create a 3D video that includes determining first adjustments (e.g., first transforms) to video frames (e.g., one or more RGB images and depth images per frame) to align content in a coordinate system to remove the effects of capturing camera motion. Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that playback a 3D video and includes determining second adjustments (e.g., second transforms) to remove the effects of movement of a viewing electronic device relative to a viewing environment during playback of the 3D video. Some implementations distinguish static content and moving content of the video frames to playback only moving objects or facilitate concurrent playback of multiple spatially related 3D videos. The 3D video may include images, audio, or 3D video of a video-capture-device user.
