    Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can simulate a virtual parallax to create three dimensional effects. For example, the computing device can obtain an image captured at a particular location. The captured two-dimensional image can be applied as texture to a three-dimensional model of the capture location. To give the two-dimensional image a three-dimensional look and feel, the computing device can simulate moving the camera used to capture the two-dimensional image to different locations around the image capture location to generate different perspectives of the textured three-dimensional model as if captured by multiple different cameras. Thus, a virtual parallax can be introduced into the generated imagery for the capture location. When presented to the user on a display of the computing device, the generated imagery may have a three-dimensional look and feel even though generated from a single two-dimensional image.

    Abstract: Managing hands matting based on light conditions includes receiving image data comprising a hand, and determining a brightness in the image data. If the brightness in the first image data satisfies the brightness threshold, hands matting is performed on the image data to extract the hand from the image data and the image data is blended with virtual content in accordance with the extracted hand. If the brightness in the first image data satisfies a disablement threshold, hands matting is disabled and the image data is blended with virtual content without extracting the hand. An alternative representation of the location of the hand is depicted in the final image.

    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that adjusts operating modes for generating three-dimensional (3D) representations of a physical environment. For example, an example process may include acquiring sensor data by the one or more sensors in a physical environment and operating the device according to a first operating mode and a second operating mode during different periods of time. In the first operating mode (e.g., discovery mode), the device generates a 3D representation of the physical environment based on the sensor data and the device monitors one or more conditions to switch to the second operating mode. In the second operating mode (e.g., monitoring mode), the device monitors the one or more conditions to switch to the first operating mode and generates the 3D representation differently than the first operating mode.
