Abstract
A mobile device is fitted with a camera and an extended reality (XR) software application program executing on a processor within an XR system. Via the XR software application program, techniques are performed for manipulating virtual objects in an XR environment. In one technique, the XR software application program facilitates the movement of a virtual object from a first location to a second location, within a plane parallel to a touchscreen of a mobile device, responsive to a displacement determined based on user input detected via the touchscreen.
