Original Abstract Submitted
an electronic device for target object selection in extended-reality environments is disclosed. while an extended-reality user interface, including a plurality of virtual objects, is being presented to a user by the electronic device, the electronic device: receives first data for a gaze-based selection ray that intersects with a first set of two or more candidate objects of the plurality of virtual objects; receives second data for a controller-based selection ray that intersects with a second set of two or more candidate objects of the plurality of virtual objects; determines, based on the first data and the second data, an intersection point between the gaze-based selection ray and the controller-based selection ray; and based on the intersection point, identifies a desired candidate object from the first set of two or more candidate objects or the second set of two or more candidate objects.
