    Abstract: A system includes one or more cameras, one or more display devices, one or more processors, and memory storing instructions that configure the system to perform operations to initiate or join a collaborative computing session. The method may comprise receiving user input to initiate a new collaborative computing session, determining that a current collaborative computing session of the same type is in progress on a second, physically-present device, based on determining that the current collaborative computing session is in progress on the second, physically-present device, providing a user input option to join the current collaborative computing session using the first device instead of starting the new collaborative computing session.

    Abstract: Example systems, devices, media, and methods are described for controlling the presentation of one or more virtual or graphical elements on a display in response to bimanual hand gestures detected by an eyewear device that is capturing frames of video data with its camera system. An image processing system detects a first hand and defines an input plane relative to a surface of the detected first hand. The image processing system also detects a series of bimanual hand shapes, including the detected first hand and at least one fingertip of a second hand. In response, the system presents a first movable element on the display at a location that is correlated with the current fingertip location. In addition, the image processing system determines whether the detected series of bimanual hand shapes matches a predefined hand gesture. In response to a matching gesture, the system executes a selecting action of an element nearest the current fingertip location.

    Abstract: A head-worn device system includes one or more cameras, one or more display devices and one or more processors. The system also includes a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the system to perform operations to initiate or join a joint visual computing session. The method may comprise receiving user input to initiate a joint session of a visual computing experience, monitoring for short-range data transmissions including data indicating the existence of a current session of the visual computing experience, and based on determining that a current session is in progress, providing a user input option to join the current session of the visual computing experience.

    Abstract: Examples are described for controlling virtual elements on a display in response to hand gestures detected by an eyewear device that is capturing frames of video data with its camera system. An image processing system detects a hand and presents a menu icon on the display in accordance with a detected current hand location. The image processing system detects a series of hand shapes in the captured frames of video data and determines whether the detected hand shapes match any of a plurality of predefined hand gestures stored in a hand gesture library. If a match, an action executes in accordance with the matching hand gesture. In response to an opening gesture, an element animation system presents one or more graphical elements incrementally moving along a path extending away from the menu icon. A closing hand gesture causes the elements to retreat along the path toward the menu icon.
