Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide a small, portable physical object for use in an extended reality system. The system may include a device that allows a user/wearer to interact with virtual representations of content such as stored data and/or applications overlaid on the user's physical environment. The object has a unique identifier that is obtainable by the device or another device. The object may be an inactive device without any internal circuitry, a passive device with circuitry that is activated by another device, or an active device having its own processing circuitry and/or a display housed in the body of the object. The object can be associated with content displayed by the device to provide a user with a physical object that can be moved or manipulated to move, modify, transport, or store the content generated, stored, and/or displayed in an extended reality environment.

Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide continuous transfer of content editing and/or control between various devices in an extended reality system. The extended reality system includes at least one device that is capable of determining the locations of other devices in the system. This device can manage continuous transfer of control between other devices in the system responsive to three-dimensional location-based user inputs, and/or can manage continuous transfer of control between one or more of the other devices and the device itself.

Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide virtual anchoring for extended reality (XR) display devices. A device may generate an XR environment that includes computer-generated (CG) content for display relative to various physical objects in a physical environment. In order to position the CG content, an XR application may request a physical anchor object to which the CG content can be anchored. In circumstances in which the physical anchor object is not available in the physical environment, a virtual anchor and/or a virtual anchor object corresponding to the physical anchor object can be provided to which the CG content can be anchored.

Abstract: This relates generally to intelligent automated assistants and, more specifically, to provide a handsfree notification management system. An example method includes displaying one or more notifications by the electronic device. In response to displaying the one or more notifications, the method includes detecting a visual interaction of a user with the one or more notifications, identifying a notification from the one or more notifications based on the visual interaction, receiving a speech input related to the notification from the user, determining one or more actions associated with the notification based on the speech input, and performing the one or more actions.

Abstract: Some examples of the disclosure are directed to systems and methods for displaying and interacting with a representation of a user interface of an electronic device in a three-dimensional environment. While presenting a first user interface, a first electronic device presents a representation of a second user interface of a second electronic device based on display data representing the second user interface. In response to detecting a respective event corresponding to user input, if a gaze of a user of the first electronic device is directed to the representation of the second user interface, the first electronic device causes the second electronic device to perform a first operation directed to the second user interface based on the respective event. Alternatively, if the gaze is directed to the first user interface, the first electronic device performs a second operation directed to the first user interface based on the respective event.

Abstract: Facilitating the fit of a head mounted device includes calculating a nominal interocular distance (IOD) using a nominal eye model. A device IOD is based on a distance between a first optical module and a second optical module of the headset. The device IOD is compared to the calculated nominal IOD. If a difference between the device IOD and the calculated nominal IOD satisfies a threshold, an adjustment process is initiated to modify the distance between the first optical module and the second optical module.
