Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling the position of an interactive movable menu in a mixed-reality environment. In some instances, a mixed-reality display device presents a mixed-reality environment to a user. The mixed-reality device then detects a first gesture associated with a user controller while presenting the mixed-reality environment and, in response to the first gesture, triggers a display of an interactive movable menu within the mixed-reality environment as a tethered hologram that is dynamically moved within the mixed-reality environment relative to and corresponding with movement of the user controller within the mixed-reality environment. Then, in response to a second detected gesture, the mixed-reality device selectively locks a display of the interactive movable menu at a fixed position that is not tethered to the user controller.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for selectively controlling a carry mode for holograms presented in mixed-reality environments and for providing leashing buffers for the holograms. The carry mode enables holograms to be functionally moved within a single mixed-reality environment, and out into one or more different mixed-reality environments. The carry mode can be automatically applied to holograms created within the mixed-reality environment. The carry mode can also be applied responsive to user input applied to world-locked holograms, which triggers a switch from the world-locked mode to the carry mode from. Holograms can also be leashed for persistently displaying holograms associated with or linked to a user in the mixed-reality environment to provide the user increased accessibility to the hologram while navigating within and without a particular mixed-reality environment. Selectable options are presented with a hologram in carry mode for switching from the carry mode to the world-locked mode.
