Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to using avatars and image data for enhanced user interactions. In some examples, user status dependent avatars are generated and displayed with a message associated with the user status. In some examples, a device captures image information to scan an object to create a 3D model of the object. The device determines an algorithm for the 3D model based on the capture image information and provides visual feedback on additional image data that is needed for the algorithm to build the 3D model. In some examples, an application's operation on a device is restricted based on whether an authorized user is identified as using the device based on captured image data.

Abstract: In some embodiments, an electronic device is configured to present user interfaces to facilitate tracing of objects within a three-dimensional environment of the electronic device. In some embodiments, the objects are physical and/or virtual. In some embodiments, the electronic device detects input directed to an input object and displays virtual ink tracing objects in accordance with the input.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to methods and interfaces for capturing and viewing immersive media. In some examples, in response to a hardware input, immersive media is captured and generated using multiple sensors of a head-mounted display device. In some examples, while displaying a media item, additional information related to the media item is displayed in response to detecting a viewer's attention departing from the media item.

Abstract: A three-dimensional computer-generated environment can be presented to a user. The user can create a virtual representation of a real-world object within the computer-generated environment by directing an input device towards the real-world object and tracing contours of the real-world object. The virtual representation can include voxels. The user can edit the virtual representation or create a new virtual object formed of voxels by depositing or removing voxels at virtual locations within the computer-generated environment based on selection inputs, release inputs, and optionally movement inputs detected by the input device. In some cases, the user can provide inputs via another input source, such as a hand of the user, that are detected by additional sensors or devices.
