Abstract: The present disclosure relates to techniques for improving a user experience for modifying display of an avatar in XR environments. In some embodiments, the techniques include modifying a portion of an avatar based on one or more heuristics. In some embodiments, the techniques include modifying a portion of an avatar after tracking is lost.

Abstract: A device for performing multi-pass object rendering using a three-dimensional geometric constraint may include at least one processor configured to receive a mesh of points corresponding to a head of a user. The at least one processor may be further configured to render an image of a sphere and to render elements corresponding to facial features based at least in part on the mesh of points. The at least one processor may be further configured to render an element visibility mask based at least in part on the mesh of points, the element visibility mask being constrained to the surface of the sphere. The at least one processor may be further configured to composite the sphere, the elements, and the element visibility mask to generate an output image. The at least one processor may be further configured to provide the output image for display.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to managing live communication sessions. A computer system optionally displays an option to invite the respective user to join the ongoing communication session. A computer system optionally one or more options to modify an appearance of an avatar representing the user of the computer system. A computer system optionally transitions a communication session from a spatial communication session to a non-spatial communication session. A computer system optionally displays information about a participant in a communication session.

Abstract: In some examples, a computer system provides non-visual feedback based on a determination that information about a user has been captured. In some examples, a computer system displays different portions of a representation of a user as the user and/or the computer system move relative to one another. In some examples, a computer system displays different three-dimensional content associated with different steps of an enrollment process. In some examples, a computer system displays visual elements at different simulated depths that move with simulated parallax to facilitate alignment of the user and the computer system. In some examples, a computer system prompts a user to make facial expressions and displays a progress bar indicating an amount of progress toward making the facial expressions. In some examples, a computer system adjusts dynamic audio output to indicate an amount of progress toward completing a step of an enrollment process.
