    Abstract: In some implementations, a method of generating a third person view of a computer-generated reality (CGR) environment is performed at a device including non-transitory memory and one or more processors coupled with the non-transitory memory. The method includes: obtaining a first viewing vector associated with a first user within a CGR environment; determining a first viewing frustum for the first user within the CGR environment based on the first viewing vector associated with the first user and one or more depth attributes; generating a representation of the first viewing frustum; and displaying, via the display device, a third person view of the CGR environment including an avatar of the first user and the representation of the first viewing frustum adjacent to the avatar of the first user.

    Abstract: In various implementations, a method comprises: identifying a plurality of data items, each of the plurality of data items having at least a first metadata field or a second metadata field; displaying a volumetric environment including a first plurality of SR objects corresponding to a first plurality of data items among the plurality of data items, wherein the first plurality of data items includes the first metadata field with first metadata field values; detecting a first user input indicative of the second metadata field; and in response to detecting the first user input, replacing the first plurality of SR objects within the volumetric environment with a second plurality of SR objects corresponding to a second plurality of data items among the plurality of data items, wherein each of the second plurality of data items includes the second metadata field with second metadata field values.

    Abstract: First content may be obtained in response to identifying a first physical element of a first object type. The first content may be associated with the first object type. Second content may be obtained in response to identifying a second physical element of a second object type. The second content may be associated with the second object type. The second physical element may be detected as being within a threshold distance of the first physical element. Third content may be generated based on a combination of the first content and the second content. The third content may be associated with a third object type that is different from the first object type and the second object type. The third content may be displayed on the display.

    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods for synthesizing virtual speech. In various implementations, a device includes a display, an audio sensor, a non-transitory memory and one or more processors coupled with the non-transitory memory. A computer-generated reality (CGR) representation of a fictional character is displayed in a CGR environment on the display. A speech input is received from a first person via the audio sensor. The speech input is modified based on one or more language characteristic values associated with the fictional character in order to generate CGR speech. The CGR speech is outputted in the CGR environment via the CGR representation of the fictional character.

    Abstract: In one implementation, a method includes: obtaining a user input to view SR content associated with video content; if the video content includes a first scene when the user input was detected: obtaining first SR content for a first time period of the video content associated with the first scene; obtaining a task associated with the first scene; and causing presentation of the first SR content and a first indication of the task associated with the first scene; and if the video content includes a second scene when the user input was detected: obtaining second SR content for a second time period of the video content associated with the second scene; obtaining a task associated with the second scene; and causing presentation of the second SR content and a second indication of the task associated with the second scene.

    Abstract: In one implementation, a method includes: while presenting reference CGR content, obtaining a request from a user to invoke a target state for the user; generating, based on a user model and the reference CGR content, modified CGR content to invoke the target state for the user; presenting the modified CGR content; after presenting the modified CGR content, determining a resultant state of the user; in accordance with a determination that the resultant state of the user corresponds to the target state for the user, updating the user model to indicate that the modified CGR content successfully invoked the target state for the user; and in accordance with a determination that the resultant state of the user does not correspond to the target state for the user, updating the user model to indicate that the modified CGR content did not successfully invoke the target state for the user.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a method includes: determining first usage patterns associated with a physical object within the physical environment; obtaining a first objective for an objective-effectuator (OE) instantiated in a computer-generated reality (CGR) environment, wherein the first objective is associated with a representation of the physical object; obtaining a first directive for the OE that limits actions for performance by the OE to achieve the first objective to the first usage patterns associated with the physical object; generating first actions, for performance by the OE, in order to achieve the first objective as limited by the first directive, wherein the first set of actions corresponds to a first subset of usage patterns from the first set of usage patterns associated with the physical object; and presenting the OE performing the first actions on the representation of the physical object overlaid on the physical environment.
