Abstract
A system and method for preventing virtual collisions may include presenting, via an extended reality appliance, a first virtual object docked to a first movable physical object and a second virtual object docked to a second movable physical object. The movement of the first and second physical objects may be tracked and an impending collision between the first virtual object and the second virtual object may be determined. Priority rules establishing that the first physical object has priority over the second physical object may be accessed. And based on the priority rules, favoring the first virtual object over the second virtual object at the time of the impending collision.
