Abstract
The methods, systems, techniques, and components described herein may facilitate user interactions with virtual objects in a three-dimensional virtual environment using user input into a graphical interface of a control device that is coupled to a display that may display the three-dimensional virtual environment. The control device may be configured to display a 3D representation of a virtual object having a non-virtual reality representation of the virtual object. The graphical interface of the control device may receive selection information that corresponds to a user selection of the 3D representation of the virtual object. Transformation parameters that provide a basis for rendering a three-dimensional representation of a virtual object in the three-dimensional virtual environment may be obtained to define a transformation of the 3D representation of the virtual object. The transformation parameters may be applied to compose a 3D representation of a virtual object that represents the virtual object in the three-dimensional virtual environment.
