Abstract

A method includes accessing an image of a physical environment of a user, the image depicting a physical input device and a physical hand of the user, determining that a contrast between the physical input device and the physical hand depicted in the image is lower than a predetermined threshold, modifying the image to increase the contrast, determining a pose of the physical input device, generating a three-dimensional model representing the physical hand of the user, generating an image mask by projecting the three-dimensional model onto an image plane, generating, a cropped image depicting at least the physical hand of the user in the image, rendering, based on the perspective of the user and the pose of the physical input device, a virtual input device to represent the physical input device, and displaying the cropped image depicting at least the physical hand over the rendered virtual input device.
