Abstract: Techniques of generating a virtual environment in a virtual reality system involves changing, within a user interface of the second user, an attribute of an avatar representing the first user while maintaining a spatial position of an object with which the first user is interacting. In this way, the second user may see only non-threatening or otherwise pleasant avatars within their user interface while other users may not perceive any change to the virtual environment as displayed in their respective user interfaces.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: In at least one aspect, a method can include determining a location of a head mounted display (HMD) of a user, defining a location of a joint based on the location of the HMD, defining a segment from the joint to an end of the segment, defining an initial virtual location of a virtual controller within a virtual reality (VR) environment based on a location of the end of the segment, and defining a virtual location and a virtual orientation of the virtual controller within the VR environment, based on the segment and the joint, in response to an orientation movement of a physical controller.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for generating a virtual environment including at least one three-dimensional virtual object within a user interface provided in a head mounted display device, detecting a first interaction pattern and a second interaction pattern. In response to detecting the second interaction pattern, a modified version of the three-dimensional virtual object at the first virtual feature is generated according to the first interaction pattern and at the second virtual feature according to the second interaction pattern. The modified version of the three-dimensional virtual object is provided in the user interface in the head mounted display device.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to use predicted actions in VR environments are disclosed. An example method includes predicting a predicted time of a predicted virtual contact of a virtual reality controller with a virtual musical instrument, determining, based on at least one parameter of the predicted virtual contact, a characteristic of a virtual sound the musical instrument would make in response to the virtual contact, and initiating producing the sound before the predicted time of the virtual contact of the controller with the musical instrument.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: In a system and method for sharing items in an augmented and/or virtual reality environment, selected virtual items may be virtually propelled using, for example, a tossing or throwing motion, to a target recipient, so that the selected item may be shared with the target recipient without direct physical and/or virtual contact with the target recipient. Movement of a user's hand may be detected and tracked, so that the intended target recipient for the shared item may be identified based on a projected trajectory of a throwing motion of the user's hand. Associations between the user and different target recipients may cause different possible target recipients to exhibit different attractive forces, or different levels of magnetism, for particular items being tossed or thrown by a user for sharing, to further differentiate between the possible target recipients, and resolve recipient ambiguity.
