Abstract

A computer implemented method for facilitating system user interface (UI) interactions in an artificial reality (XR) environment is provided. The method includes rendering the system UI in the XR environment as a 3D virtual element. The method further includes tracking a position of a hand of a user and a pre-defined stable point on the user. The method further includes identifying, based on the tracking, that the hand has grasped a portion of the system UI and, in response, rotating the position of the system UI around the grasped portion of the system UI such that a line, between the stable point and the surface of the system UI, is moved, to be perpendicular or at a predefined angle from perpendicular to the surface of the system UI, as the user moves the system UI via the grasped portion.
