identifying a screen of a separate computing device in the video data;

pairing the extended reality device and the separate computing device;

generating a graphical outline around the screen of the separate computing device;

displaying the screen of the separate computing device and the graphical outline around the screen of the separate computing device on a display of the extended reality device, wherein the displayed screen on the display of the extended reality device has at least one display characteristic different from the screen being displayed on the separate computing device;

detecting a user interaction with the graphical outline around the screen of the separate computing device based on the received video data; and

in response to detecting the user interaction, performing an action associated with the user interaction.

10. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein the video data of the real-world environment of the user is received when the extended reality device is set to operate in a passthrough mode.

11. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein identifying the screen of the separate computing device comprises:

identifying at least one image or pattern displayed on the screen of the separate computing device; and

based on the identification of the at least one image or pattern, uniquely identifying the separate computing device for pairing to the extended reality device.

12. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein identifying the screen of the separate computing device comprises:

identifying a QR code displayed on the screen of the separate computing device; and

based on the identification of the QR code, uniquely identifying the separate computing device for pairing to the extended reality device.

13. The computing system of claim 9 , wherein displaying the screen of the separate computing device and the graphical outline comprises:

determining a position of the screen in the display of the extended reality device;

generating a graphical overlay of the screen;

displaying the graphical overlay of the screen at the position of the screen; and

displaying the graphical outline around the graphical overlay of the screen.

14. The computing system of claim 13 , wherein detecting the user interaction with the graphical outline comprises:

determining a position of a hand of the user in the video data; and

determining that the position of the hand in the video data overlaps a position of the graphical outline.
