Suppressing a hand gesture upon detecting peripheral events on a peripheral device includes determining a first hand pose for a first hand a second hand pose for a second hand in response to a detected peripheral device peripheral event, determining, based on the first hand pose and the second hand pose, at least one hand of the first hand and the second hand in a peripheral use mode, detecting an input gesture from a hand of the at least one hand determined to be in the peripheral use mode, and rejecting the input gesture by a user input pipeline in accordance with the determination that the hand is in the peripheral use mode. The presence of a peripheral device is confirmed by activating a computer vision system in response to determining that a peripheral use condition is satisfied.

Suppression of hand gestures upon detection of peripheral events on a peripheral device

While a view of an environment is visible via a display generation component of a computer system, the computer system detects a gaze input directed to a first location, corresponding to a first user interface element, in the environment. In response to detecting the gaze input: if a user's hand is in a predefined configuration during the gaze input, the computer system: provides, to the first user interface element, information about the gaze input; and then, in response to detecting the gaze input moving to a different, second location in the environment while the user's hand is maintained in the predefined configuration, provides, to a second user interface element that corresponds to the second location, information about the gaze input. If the user's hand is not in the predefined configuration during the gaze input, the computer system forgoes providing, to the first user interface element, information about the gaze input.

Devices, methods, and graphical user interfaces for processing inputs to a three-dimensional environment

Touch-based input devices, such as a stylus, can receive tactile input from a user. The tactile input functions can be performed by a touch sensor, such as a capacitive sensing device. A touch sensor can be integrated into a stylus in a low profile form. Tactile input can be received at the user's natural grip location. Furthermore, the stylus can effectively distinguish between tactile inputs from a user and disregard sustained tactile inputs that are provided while the user simply holds the stylus at the user's natural grip location.
