Abstract: A method includes displaying, on a display, a representation of a physical environment and a computer-generated object. The method includes generating a three-dimensional (3D) point cloud associated with the representation of the physical environment. The method includes obtaining depth information characterizing the physical environment. The method includes obtaining a capture event associated with a capture region within the representation of the physical environment. The capture region includes a portion of the computer-generated object. The method includes, in response to obtaining the capture event, disambiguating a group of points from the 3D point cloud, and generating, based on a function of the depth information and the group of points, a volumetric representation of the capture region. The group of points satisfies a spatial threshold with respect to the capture region. The volumetric representation includes a volumetric representation of the portion of the computer-generated object.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods for identifying virtual object kits that may be used to generate a target virtual object. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining a plurality of virtual object kits that generate variations of respective virtual object types. Each virtual object kit is associated with a characteristic parameter. For each virtual object kit, a subset of possible virtual object variations of the virtual object type is generated by assigning corresponding values to the characteristic parameter based on a distribution criterion. A subset of the plurality of virtual object kits is identified based on the target virtual object being within a similarity threshold of one or more virtual object variations generated using the subset of the plurality of virtual object kits in response to a request to assemble a target virtual object.
