    Abstract: The disclosed human computer interface (HCI) system may include (1) at least one processor, (2) a plurality of sensors that detect one or more neuromuscular signals from a forearm or wrist of a user, and (3) memory that stores (A) one or more trained inferential models that determine an amount of force associated with the one or more neuromuscular signals and (B) computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to (I) identify the amount of force determined by the one or more trained inferential models, (II) determine that the amount of force satisfies a threshold force value, and in accordance with the determination that the amount of force satisfies the threshold force value, (III) generate a first input command for the HCI system. Various other devices, systems, and methods are also disclosed.

    Abstract: Example systems may include a head-mounted device configured to present an artificial reality view to a user, a control device including a plurality of electromyography (EMG) sensors, and at least one physical processor programmed to receive EMG data based on signals detected by the EMG sensors, detect EMG signals corresponding to user gestures within the EMG data, classify the EMG signals to identify gesture types, and provide control signals based on the gesture types, wherein the control signal triggers the head-mounted device to modify the artificial reality view. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

    Abstract: The disclosed system for interacting with objects in an extended reality (XR) environment generated by an XR system may include (1) neuromuscular sensors configured to sense neuromuscular signals from a wrist of a user and (2) at least one computer processor programmed to (a) determine, based at least in part on the sensed neuromuscular signals, information relating to an interaction of the user with an object in the XR environment and (b) instruct the XR system to, based on the determined information relating to the interaction of the user with the object, augment the interaction of the user with the object in the XR environment. Other embodiments of this aspect include corresponding apparatus, and computer programs recorded on one or more computer storage devices, each configured to perform the actions of the methods.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing input to an augmented reality system or an extended reality system based, at least in part, on neuromuscular signals. The methods and systems comprise detecting, using one or more neuromuscular sensors arranged on one or more wearable devices, neuromuscular signals from a user; determining that a computerized system is in a mode configured to provide input including text to the augmented reality system; identifying based, at least in part, on the neuromuscular signals and/or information based on the neuromuscular signals, the input, wherein the input is further identified based, at least in part, on the mode; and providing the identified input to the augmented reality system.
