An electronic device, such as a head-mounted device, communicates with one or more input devices, including a first camera with a first lens and a second camera with a second lens. In some examples, the electronic device detects a gaze of a user directed at an object within the three-dimensional environment and extracts data corresponding to the object based on images captured with the first lens. In response to extracting the data, in accordance with a determination that one or more criteria are satisfied, including a criterion that is satisfied when the data has a quality metric below a quality metric threshold, the electronic device extracts the data based on images captured with the second lens, and in accordance with a determination that the one or more criteria are not satisfied, the electronic device forgoes extracting the data based on the images captured with the second lens.
A method comprising:
An electronic device in communication with one or more input devices, including a first camera with a first lens and a second camera with a second lens, wherein the first lens corresponds to a first lens type and the second lens corresponds to a second lens type, different from the first lens type, the electronic device comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by one more processors of an electronic device in communication with one or more input devices, including a first camera with a first lens and a second camera with a second lens, wherein the first lens corresponds to a first lens type and the second lens corresponds to a second lens type, different from the first lens type, cause the electronic device to:
