Abstract
An artificial reality system is described that renders, presents, and controls user interface elements within an artificial reality environment, and performs actions in response to one or more detected gestures of the user. The artificial reality system captures image data representative of a physical environment and outputs artificial reality content. The artificial reality system renders a container that includes application content items as an overlay to the artificial reality content. The artificial reality system identifies, from the image data, a selection gesture comprising a configuration of a hand that is substantially stationary for a threshold period of time at a first location corresponding to a first application content item within the container, and a subsequent movement of the hand from the first location to a second location outside the container. The artificial reality system renders the first application content item at the second location in response.
