CPC Code(s): G06F3/011
Abstract: aspects of the present disclosure can provide portals to virtual reality (vr) experiences from within an artificial reality (xr) entry space, such as mixed reality (mr) or augmented reality (ar). some implementations can allow a user to move between pre-established physical spaces that are mapped to certain activities and tagged content. some implementations can tag the content to a particular real-world location based on user input, a system suggestion, or the system simply picking up where the user left off in an ar or mr experience in that location. in some implementations, the content can launch a corresponding vr experience. for example, a virtual object can appear overlaid on a user's real-world room. by grabbing the virtual object, some implementations can automatically launch a vr experience. in another example, some implementations can automatically display a virtual portal to a vr co-working experience when the user sits at her desk.

Abstract: a wearable device includes an analog-to-digital converter (adc) configured to digitize biopotential signals received from biopotential-signal-sensing channels. the wearable device also includes a supplementary processor that samples the digital biopotential signals from the adc. the supplementary processor sends the digital biopotential signals to a buffer until a determination is made that a particular number of the digital biopotential signals is stored in the buffer. additionally, the supplementary processor transmits an indication to a primary processor that the particular number of the digital biopotential signals is stored in the buffer. in addition to the adc and the supplementary processor, the wearable device includes the aforementioned primary processor. the primary processor is configured to operate in a low-power mode before receiving the indication and, after receiving the indication, process the particular number of digital biopotential signals from the buffer to detect in-air hand gestures performed by a user of the wearable device.
