    摘要: Systems and methods are described that are configured to obtain tracking data corresponding to a plurality of users accessing a virtual reality environment. The tracking data may include information associated with a plurality of movements performed by a first user in a physical environment. The systems and methods may be configured to modify display data associated with the plurality of movements, in response to determining that the information is private, and provide, in the virtual environment, the modified display data to a second user in the plurality of users, while displaying unmodified display data to the first user.

    摘要: Systems and methods are described that include generating a virtual environment for display in a head-mounted display device. The virtual environment may include at least one three-dimensional virtual object having a plurality of volumetric zones configured to receive virtual contact. The method may also include detecting a plurality of inputs corresponding to a plurality of actions performed in the virtual environment on the at least one three-dimensional virtual object. Each action corresponds to a plurality of positions and orientations associated with at least one tracked input device. The method may include generating, for each action and while detecting the plurality of inputs, a plurality of prediction models and determining based on the plurality of prediction models in which of the plurality of volumetric zones the at least one tracked input device is predicted to virtually collide.

    摘要: In at least one general aspect, a method can include detecting an interaction with a first object in a virtual reality (VR) environment, producing first contextual information based on user interaction with the first object, determining a second object to display in the VR environment based on the first contextual information, and presenting the second object in the VR environment. The interaction of the user may include at least one of a movement, a speech, or a physiological trait of the user.

    摘要: In at least one general aspect, a method can include determining a physics parameter based at least in part on a scale of user relative to an object in a virtual reality environment, applying a physics rule to an interaction between the user and the object in the virtual reality environment based on the physics parameter, and modifying the physics parameter based at least in part on a relative change in scale between the user and the object.
