Abstract

An artificial reality system is described that renders, presents, and controls user interface elements within an artificial reality environment, and performs actions in response to one or more detected gestures of the user. The artificial reality system captures image data representative of a physical environment and outputs the artificial reality content. The artificial reality system identifies, from the image data, a gesture comprising a motion of a first digit of a hand and a second digit of the hand to form a pinching configuration a particular number of times within a threshold amount of time. The artificial reality system assigns one or more input characters to one or more of a plurality of digits of the hand and processes a selection of a first input character of the one or more input characters assigned to the second digit of the hand in response to the identified gesture.
