Abstract
Examples that relate to virtual controls in a mixed reality experience are described. One example provides a method comprising, via a mixed reality display device, displaying mixed reality content including a representation of a virtual control, and receiving sensor data indicating motion of a user digit. The method further comprises, based at least in part on the sensor data, determining a velocity of the user digit, and responsive to determining that the velocity of the user digit relative to a surface corresponding to the virtual control satisfies a velocity-based selection condition, triggering the virtual control.
