Abstract
In one implementation, a method is performed for tiered posture awareness. The method includes: while presenting a three-dimensional (3D) environment, via the display device, obtaining head pose information for a user associated with the computing system; determining an accumulated strain value for the user based on the head pose information; and in accordance with a determination that the accumulated strain value for the user exceeds a first posture awareness threshold: determining a location for virtual content based on a height value associated with the user and a depth value associated with the 3D environment; and presenting, via the display device, the virtual content at the determined location while continuing to present the 3D environment via the display device.
