Abstract
Bending data is used to facilitate tracking operations of an extended reality (XR) device, such as hand tracking or other object tracking operations. The XR device obtains bending data indicative of bending of the XR device to accommodate a body part of a user wearing the XR device. The XR device determines, based on the bending data, whether to use previously identified biometric data in a tracking operation. A mode of the XR device is selected responsive to determining whether to use the previously identified biometric data. The selected mode is used to initialize the tracking operation. The selected mode may be a first mode in which the previously identified biometric data is used in the tracking operation or a second mode in which the previously identified biometric data is not used in the tracking operation.
