Abstract:
Embodiments are directed to a near eye display (NED) system for displaying artificial reality content to a user and to manipulate displayed content items based upon gestures performed by users of the NED system. A user of the NED system may perform a gesture simulating the throwing of an object to “cast” a content item to a target location in an artificial reality (AR) environment displayed by the NED system. The gesture may comprise a first portion in which the user's hand “grabs” or “pinches” a virtual object corresponding to the content item and moves backwards relative to their body, and a second portion in which the user's hand moves forwards relative to their body and releases the virtual object. The target location may be identified based upon a trajectory associated with the backwards motion of the first portion of the gesture.

Claim (Index 1):
A system comprising:\n a near eye display (NED) comprising:\n an optical assembly having an electronic display that is configured to display images in accordance with display instructions; \n an imaging device configured to capture one or more images of a portions of a local area of the NED; and \n a controller configured to:\n determine a position of a hand of a user of the NED located within the local area using the captured one or more images; \n identify a first portion of a gesture performed by the hand of the user based upon one or more determined positions of the hand, the gesture corresponding to a predetermined sequence of one or more hand movements or hand positions and associated with a content item; \n determine a position within the local area, the determined position corresponding to an extension of a trajectory associated with at least the first portion of the identified gesture; \n identify a second portion of the gesture performed by the hand of the user based upon the one or more determined positions of the hand; and \n update the display instructions to cause the electronic display to display a representation of the content item at the determined position within a virtual environment.
