Abstract

The various implementations described herein include methods and systems for tracking user movements. In one aspect, a method includes, while a user is interacting with a virtual object, obtaining tracking information by tracking, via a sensor, a position of an arm of a user. The method also includes, in conjunction with tracking the position of the arm, obtaining wrist information by detecting, via a neuromuscular-signal sensor, a movement of a wrist of the arm. The method further includes assigning one or more motion characteristics to the virtual object in accordance with the tracking information and the wrist information.
