11. A method comprising:
capturing, by an artificial reality system, image data representative of a physical environment having a plurality of physical objects including a trigger object, the trigger object being capable of supporting a user in a sitting position;
determining, by the artificial reality system and based on the image data, a map of the physical environment including position information about the trigger object;
determining, by the artificial reality system, that the user is performing a sitting motion on the trigger object, and
responsive to determining that the user is performing a sitting motion on the trigger object, presenting, by the artificial reality system, an artificial reality environment on a display associated with a head-mounted display (HMD), wherein presenting the artificial reality environment includes identifying the user and generating artificial reality content based on information about the user.
