Sensors for accurately throwing objects in an extended-reality environment, and systems and methods of use thereof

A method of tracking user movements, the method comprising:

• while a user is interacting with a virtual object:
• obtaining tracking information by tracking, via a sensor, a position of an arm of the user;
• and
• in conjunction with tracking the position of the arm, obtaining wrist information by detecting, via a neuromuscular-signal sensor, a movement of a wrist of the arm;
• and
• assigning one or more motion characteristics to the virtual object in accordance with the tracking information and the wrist information.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing one or more sets of instructions configured for execution by a computing device having control circuitry and memory, the one or more sets of instructions comprising instructions for:

• while a user is interacting with a virtual object:
• obtaining tracking information by tracking, via a sensor, a position of an arm of the user;
• and
• in conjunction with tracking the position of the arm, obtaining wrist information by detecting, via a neuromuscular-signal sensor, a movement of a wrist of the arm;
• and
• assigning one or more motion characteristics to the virtual object in accordance with the tracking information and the wrist information.
