Abstract

A method includes determining to present a computer-generated reality (CGR) object that is associated with a first anchor and a second anchor. The method includes determining, based on an image of a physical environment, whether the physical environment includes a portion corresponding to the first anchor. The method includes, in response to determining that the physical environment lacks a portion that corresponds to the first anchor, determining, based on the image, whether the physical environment includes a portion corresponding to the second anchor. The method includes, in response to determining that the physical environment includes a portion that corresponds to the second anchor, displaying, on the display, the CGR object at a location of the display corresponding to the second anchor.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method comprising:
 at a device including a display, a non-transitory memory and one or more processors:
 determining to present a computer-generated reality (CGR) object that is associated with a first anchor and a second anchor; 
 determining, based on an image of a physical environment, whether the physical environment includes a portion corresponding to the first anchor; 
 in response to determining that the physical environment lacks a portion that corresponds to the first anchor:
 determining, based on the image, whether the physical environment includes a portion corresponding to the second anchor; and 
 in response to determining that the physical environment includes a portion that corresponds to the second anchor, displaying, on the display, the CGR object at a location of the display corresponding to the second anchor. 
 
   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein determining to present the CGR object comprises receiving, via one or more input devices, a user input that corresponds to a request to present the CGR object. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein determining to present the CGR object comprises determining to present a CGR environment that includes the CGR object. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising capturing the image of the physical environment using a camera of the device. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first anchor serves as a primary anchor and the second anchor serves as a backup anchor for displaying the CGR object. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein displaying the CGR object comprises overlaying the CGR object on a portion of the image that depicts the second anchor. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first anchor includes an anchor image and the second anchor includes a planar surface in the physical environment. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the first anchor is a tabletop and the second anchor is a horizontal plane. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the display includes an optical passthrough display. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 detecting a movement of the device that results in a change of the location of the second anchor on the display; and   displaying a movement of the CGR object based on the change of the location of the second anchor on the display.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the second anchor is a physical object in the physical environment, and the method further comprises:
 detecting a movement of the physical object in the physical environment; and   displaying a movement of the CGR object based on the movement of the physical object in the physical environment.   
     
     
         12 . An electronic device comprising:
 a display;   a non-transitory memory;   one or more processors; and   one or more programs stored in the non-transitory memory, which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the electronic device to:
 determine to present a computer-generated reality (CGR) object that is associated with a first anchor and a second anchor; 
 determine, based on an image of a physical environment, whether the physical environment includes a portion corresponding to the first anchor; 
 in response to determining that the physical environment lacks a portion that corresponds to the first anchor:
 determine, based on the image, whether the physical environment includes a portion corresponding to the second anchor; and 
 in response to determining that the physical environment includes a portion that corresponds to the second anchor, display, on the display, the CGR object at a location of the display corresponding to the second anchor. 
 
   
     
     
         13 . The electronic device of  claim 12 , wherein determining to present the CGR object comprises receiving, via one or more input devices, a user input that corresponds to a request to present the CGR object. 
     
     
         14 . The electronic device of  claim 12 , wherein determining to present the CGR object comprises determining to present a CGR environment that includes the CGR object. 
     
     
         15 . The electronic device of  claim 12 , wherein the one or more programs further cause the electronic device to capture the image of the physical environment using a camera of the device. 
     
     
         16 . The electronic device of  claim 12 , wherein the first anchor serves as a primary anchor and the second anchor serves as a backup anchor for displaying the CGR object. 
     
     
         17 . The electronic device of  claim 12 , wherein displaying the CGR object comprises overlaying the CGR object on a portion of the image that depicts the second anchor. 
     
     
         18 . The electronic device of  claim 12 , wherein the first anchor includes an anchor image and the second anchor includes a planar surface in the physical environment. 
     
     
         19 . The electronic device of  claim 12 , wherein the first anchor is a tabletop and the second anchor is a horizontal plane. 
     
     
         20 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions encoded thereon which, when executed by an electronic device including a non-transitory memory and one or more processors, cause the electronic device to:
 determine to present a computer-generated reality (CGR) object that is associated with a first anchor and a second anchor;   determine, based on an image of a physical environment, whether the physical environment includes a portion corresponding to the first anchor;   in response to determining that the physical environment lacks a portion that corresponds to the first anchor:
 determine, based on the image, whether the physical environment includes a portion corresponding to the second anchor; and 
 in response to determining that the physical environment includes a portion that corresponds to the second anchor, display, on the display, the CGR object at a location of the display corresponding to the second anchor.
