Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide a quick actions menu in an artificial reality (XR) environment that can be accessed by performing a hand gesture detected by an XR device which, in some implementations, can be detected without the use of controllers. Once the menu is open, the user can move her hand while performing the gesture to highlight a particular quick action and can release the gesture on a highlighted action to select the action. In some implementations, the user can drill down into an action on the menu by highlighting the action, then dragging the gesture off of the action away from the menu. To close the quick actions menu, the user can either A) move the gesture off the menu and release the gesture, B) rotate the wrist, or C) explicitly dismiss the menu, such as by using a voice command detected by the XR device.

Abstract: Methods and systems described herein are directed to a virtual web browser for providing access to multiple virtual worlds interchangeably. Browser tabs for corresponding website and virtual world pairs can be displayed along with associated controls, the selection of such controls effecting the instantiation of 3D content for the virtual worlds. One or more of the tabs can be automatically generated as a result of interactions with objects in the virtual worlds, such that travel to a world, corresponding to an object to which an interaction was directed, is facilitated.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for facilitating user interface interactions in an XR environment is provided. The method incudes rendering a system UI and tracking a position of user's hand. The method further includes signifying an interaction opportunity by generating first feedback that modifies a UI element based on position of user's hand being within first threshold distance of the UI element or by generating second feedback that accentuates an edge of the system UI based on the position of user's hand being within second threshold distance of the edge. Furthermore, the method includes updating the position of the user's hand. The method further includes signifying interaction with the UI element by modifying location of representation of the user's hand, when the user's hand has interacted with the UI element or signifying interaction with the edge by generating third feedback that accentuates the portion of the representation that grabs the edge.

Abstract: Methods and systems described herein are directed to a virtual personal interface (herein “personal interface”) for controlling an artificial reality (XR) environment, such as by providing user interfaces for interactions with a current XR application, providing detail views for selected items, navigating between multiple virtual worlds without having to transition in and out of a home lobby for those worlds, executing aspects of a second XR application while within a world controlled by a first XR application, and providing 3D content that is separate from the current world. While in at least one of those worlds, the personal interface can itself present content in a runtime separate from the current virtual world, corresponding to an item, action, or application for that world. XR applications can be defined for use with the personal interface to create both a 3D world portion and 2D interface portions that are displayed via the personal interface.
