A system and methods are provided to manage gestures and positional data from a pointing device, considering an attention sensing device with known accuracy characteristics. The method uses the state of the user's attention and the pointing device data as input, mapping them against predefined regions on the device's screen(s). It then uses both the mapping results and raw inputs to affect the device, such as sending instructions or moving the pointing cursor.

The present disclosure generally relates to methods and user interfaces for establishing communications.

In accordance with some embodiments, a method is performed at a first device with one or more processors, non-transitory memory, and a display. The method includes displaying, on the display, a device control transfer affordance while operating the first device based on user input from an input device that is in communication with the first device. The method includes receiving a device control transfer user input from the input device selecting the device control transfer affordance that is displayed on the display of the first device. In response to receiving the device control transfer user input, the method includes configuring a second device to be operated based on user input from the input device and ceasing to operate the first device based on user input from the input device.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for selectively controlling display of virtual objects are provided. 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. A 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.

Navigating within a document to a specific cursor location within an open document which a user has marked with a temporary anchor point by receiving a retrieval keystroke within the document from the user; verifying the retrieval keystroke relates to a temporary anchor point; and based on the verified retrieval keystroke, a computer moving a cursor to the location within the document at which the temporary anchor point associated with the verified retrieval keystroke is located, without additional user interaction with the open document.

Information delivery systems and methods are disclosed. In a system according to the invention, there is a database system, a user appliance, a first communication channel and a second communication channel. The database system may have records that are alterable by a service provider. The user appliance may have an input device with polysemous keys. Further, the user appliance may also have a monitor, which is able to provide the user with information corresponding to records of the database system.
