Abstract
A computing system, such as a head mounted display, is configured for dynamically modifying an occlusion, such as a hand occlusion, that is presented and moved within a mixed reality environment. The occlusion is associated with a movement attribute, such as a velocity or acceleration, corresponding with movement of the occlusion within the mixed reality environment. Upon detecting a movement of the occlusion, it is determined whether the movement attribute meets or exceeds a predetermined threshold. When the threshold is at least met, the visual appearance of the occlusion is modified by at least one of modifying a transparency attribute of the occlusion to cause increased transparency of the occlusion or by modifying an edge display attribute of the occlusion to cause feathering of one or more occlusion edges.
