Abstract: Displaying and updating content items in a primary viewing screen and one or more secondary viewing screens in a computer-generated environment is disclosed. The primary and secondary viewing screens can present different content items, or in some examples the secondary viewing screens can present content items that correspond to the content items in the primary viewing screen. A viewer can provide input to change the size and arrangement of the viewing screens, change the content items being displayed in the viewing screens, or change the designations (primary or secondary) of the viewing screens. The viewer can also establish criteria that can trigger the automatic updating of content items being displayed in the viewing screens. In some examples, a viewer can join a multi-user communication session to jointly view the primary viewing screen and the one or more secondary screens while maintaining control over some of the viewing screens.

Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide application-free extended reality systems and methods. In an application-free extended reality environment, data may be visualized for a user using a data visualization utility that is provided by an operating system of a computing device. The operating system can also provide, separately from the data visualization utility, interaction tools for interacting data that is displayed in the mixed reality environment by the data visualization utility.

Abstract: Some examples of the disclosure are directed to systems and methods for displaying supplemental content for two-dimensional content that is being played back in a three-dimensional environment at an electronic device. In some examples, while a content item is displayed in a virtual playback user interface in a three-dimensional environment, the electronic device displays a three-dimensional representation corresponding to the content item in the three-dimensional environment. In some examples, the three-dimensional representation includes a representation of a venue of the event and/or representations of participants in the event. In some examples, portions of the venue and/or a subset of the participants in the event that are not currently displayed/visible in the camera view of the broadcast/stream of the content item are included in the three-dimensional representation. In some examples, the three-dimensional representation is configurable to be interacted with independently of the display of the content item in the three-dimensional environment.

Abstract: Various implementations use object information to facilitate a communication session. Some implementations create a dense reconstruction (e.g., a point cloud or triangular mesh) of a physical environment, for example, using light intensity images and depth sensor data. A less data-intensive object information is also created to represent the physical environment for more efficient storage, editing, sharing, and use. In some implementations, the object information includes object attribute and location information. In some implementations, a 2D floorplan or other 2D representation provides object locations and metadata (e.g., object type, texture, heights, dimensions, etc.) provide object attributes. The object location and attribute information may be used, during a communication session, to generate a 3D graphical environment that is representative of the physical environment.
