Abstract
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media containing instructions for selectively controlling display of virtual objects are provided. In one implementation, virtual objects may be virtually presented in an environment via a wearable extended reality appliance operable in a first and second display modes; in the first display mode, positions of the virtual objects are maintained in the environment regardless of detected movements of the wearable extended reality appliance, and in the second display mode, the virtual objects move in the environment in response to detected movements of the wearable extended reality appliance; movement of the wearable extended reality appliance may be detected; selection of the first or second display mode may be received; display signals configured to present the virtual objects in a manner consistent with the selected display mode may be outputted for presentation via the wearable extended reality appliance in response to the selected display mode.
