Systems, methods, and computer program products are described that include obtaining, at a processor, a first image from an image capture device onboard a computing device, detecting, using the processor and at least one sensor, a device orientation of the computing device associated with capture of the first image, determining, based on the device orientation and a tracking stack associated with the computing device, a rotation angle in which to rotate the first image, rotating the first image to the rotation angle to generate a second image, and generating neural network based estimates associated with the first image and the second image.

In one general aspect, a method can include triggering display of a virtual environment in a head mounted display (HMD) device operating in a physical environment, triggering display of a first virtual object representing a second virtual object, the first virtual object having a size smaller than a size of the second virtual object, receiving an indication of an interaction of a user with the first virtual object, the user having a first size larger than the size of the first virtual object, and triggering an interaction with the second virtual object in response to an interaction with the first virtual object, the user having a second size larger than the first size when interacting with the second virtual object.
