User interface for informational input in virtual reality environment

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions executable by a computer system to perform operations comprising:

• in response to receiving an indication of an input initiation, presenting an input starting point and a plurality of virtual keys in a virtual reality scenario, wherein each of the plurality of virtual keys has at least one noninterfering path from the input starting point to the each of the plurality of virtual keys, wherein the noninterfering path from the input starting point to the each of the plurality of virtual keys is not interfered by any other one of the plurality of virtual keys;
• receiving displacement data of a focus of attention from sensing hardware;
• in response to determining that the focus of attention reaches the input starting point based on the displacement data, activating detection of a virtual key input;
• and
• in response to detecting that the focus of attention moves from the input starting point to a first virtual key of the plurality of virtual keys, determining that the first virtual key is input;
• and terminating the detection of the virtual key input.

A computer-implemented system, comprising:

• one or more computers;
• and
• one or more computer memory devices interoperably coupled with the one or more computers and having tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable media storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more computers, perform operations comprising:
• in response to receiving an indication of an input initiation, presenting an input starting point and a plurality of virtual keys in a virtual reality scenario, wherein each of the plurality of virtual keys has at least one noninterfering path from the input starting point to the each of the plurality of virtual keys, wherein the noninterfering path from the input starting point to the each of the plurality of virtual keys is not interfered by any other one of the plurality of virtual keys;
• receiving displacement data of a focus of attention from sensing hardware;
• in response to determining that the focus of attention reaches the input starting point based on the displacement data, activating detection of a virtual key input;
• and
• in response to detecting that the focus of attention moves from the input starting point to a first virtual key of the plurality of virtual keys, determining that the first virtual key is input;
• and terminating the detection of the virtual key input.
