==DIGITAL ASSISTANT OBJECT PLACEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18434605 titled 'DIGITAL ASSISTANT OBJECT PLACEMENT

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant within a computer-generated reality (CGR) environment. Here is a simplified explanation of the patent application:

* A user input triggers a digital assistant session within a CGR environment.
* The digital assistant session is initiated by placing a digital assistant object at a specific location within the CGR environment.
* The location of the digital assistant object is indicated to the user through an output.

Potential Applications:
This technology could be applied in virtual reality games, interactive storytelling experiences, virtual meetings, and virtual shopping environments.

Problems Solved:
This technology solves the problem of seamlessly integrating an intelligent automated assistant within a computer-generated reality environment, enhancing user interaction and experience.

Benefits:
The benefits of this technology include improved user engagement, personalized assistance, and a more immersive CGR experience.

Potential Commercial Applications:
Potential commercial applications of this technology could include virtual reality gaming platforms, virtual shopping malls, virtual classrooms, and virtual assistance services.

Possible Prior Art:
One possible prior art for this technology could be the use of virtual assistants in augmented reality applications.

Unanswered Questions:
1. How does the system handle multiple user inputs triggering digital assistant sessions simultaneously?
2. What measures are in place to ensure the privacy and security of user interactions with the digital assistant within the CGR environment?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Systems and processes for operating an intelligent automated assistant within a computer-generated reality (CGR) environment are provided. For example, a user input invoking a digital assistant session is received, and in response, a digital assistant session is initiated. Initiating the digital assistant session includes positioning a digital assistant object at a first location within the CGR environment but outside of the currently-displayed portion of the CGR environment at a first time, and providing a first output indicating the location of the digital assistant object.
