Obfuscated control interfaces for extended reality
Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for generating obfuscated control interfaces for extended reality (XR) experiences. An example method can include determining a pose of an XR device within a mapped scene of a physical environment associated with the XR device; rendering a virtual control interface within the mapped scene according to a configuration including a first size, a first position relative to the pose of the XR device, a first ordering of input elements, and/or a first number of input elements; and adjusting the configuration of the virtual control interface based on a privacy characteristic of data associated with the virtual control interface and/or characteristics of the physical environment associated with the XR device, the adjusted configuration including a second size, a second ordering of input elements, a second number of input elements, and/or a second position relative to the pose of the XR device and/or first position.
