Systems and methods for surface detection

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to one or more of the processors and comprising instructions operable when executed by one or more of the processors to cause the system to:
• track first positions of a controller in a three-dimensional space;
• determine a plurality of planes based on the first positions;
• determine that the plurality of planes are within a threshold deviation of each other;
• generate a virtual plane based on the plurality of planes;
• track second positions of the controller in the three-dimensional space;
• identify one or more of the second positions that are within a threshold distance of the virtual plane;
• generate a drawing in the virtual plane based on the one or more of the second positions;
• and
• render a scene depicting the drawing.

One or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media embodying software that is operable when executed to:

• track first positions of a controller in a three-dimensional space;
• determine a plurality of planes based on the first positions;
• determine that the plurality of planes are within a threshold deviation of each other;
• generate a virtual plane based on the plurality of planes;
• track second positions of the controller in the three-dimensional space;
• identify one or more of the second positions that are within a threshold distance of the virtual plane;
• generate a drawing in the virtual plane based on the one or more of the second positions;
• and
• render a scene depicting the drawing.
