Abstract
Systems and methods for simulating user interaction with virtual objects in an augmented reality environment are provided. Three-dimensional point cloud information from a three-dimensional volumetric imaging sensor may be obtained. An object position of a virtual object may be determined. Individual potential force vectors for potential forces exerted on the virtual object may be determined. An individual potential force vector may be defined by one or more of a magnitude, a direction, and/or other information. An aggregate scalar magnitude of the individual potential force vectors may be determined. An aggregate potential force vector may be determined by aggregating the magnitudes and directions of the individual potential force vectors. It may be determined whether the potential forces exerted on the virtual object are conflicting.
