Techniques for displaying a virtual object in an enhanced reality setting in accordance with a physical muting mode being active are described. In some examples, while the physical muting mode is active, a system obtains a first set of context data for one or more physical elements in a physical setting and causes display of a virtual object representing the one or more physical elements in a first position using at least a portion of the first set of context data. After the virtual object representing the one or more physical elements is displayed in the first position, the physical muting mode is deactivated. In response to detecting the deactivation of the physical muting mode, the system causes display of a transitional motion of the virtual object representing the one or more physical elements from the first position to a second position.

Muting mode for a virtual object representing one or more physical elements

A first device coupled with a first display and an image sensor receives output data from a second device having a second display different from the first display. The output data represents content displayable by the second device on the second display. The first device determines, using the image sensor, a position of the second display relative to the first device and causes the first display to display content based on the output data received from the second device and the determined position of the second display relative to the first device.

Techniques for displaying a virtual object in an enhanced reality setting in accordance with a physical muting mode being active are described. In some examples, a system obtains context data for one or more physical elements in a physical setting, wherein the context data includes first context data and second context data that is different from the first context data. In some examples, in response to obtaining the context data for the one or more physical elements in the physical setting, a system causes display of a virtual object that represents the one or more physical elements using the first context data without using the second context data, in accordance with a determination that a physical muting mode is active.

In an exemplary process for specifying an entrance or exit effect in a computer-generated reality environment, in response to a user entering or exiting the computer-generated reality environment, a transition effect is provided.

Specifying effects for entering or exiting a computer-generated reality environment

The present disclosure relates generally to for displaying a set of images based on captured image data. In some embodiments, a system displays a first set of images corresponding to a first perspective in a virtual reality (VR) (or mixed reality (MR)) environment. The system receives a request while displaying the first set of images. The system captures image data corresponding to a second perspective in the VR (or MR) environment in response to receiving the request. The system displays a second set of images based on the captured image data.

Captured image data in a computer-generated reality environment

The present disclosure relates to using user biometric characteristics measured while the user is viewing virtual reality content to provide suggestions for downloadable virtual reality content in a virtual reality content store. An exemplary user device determines a criterion based on the user characteristics to filter the virtual reality content so that only virtual reality content that meets the criterion are displayed to the user. The virtual reality content displayed in the virtual reality content store has a corresponding activity level score.
