1. A system comprising:
a microphone;
a display;
an audio output; and
one or more processors configured to execute a method comprising:
at a first time, detecting a footstep, of a user, on a surface;
in accordance with said detecting the footstep, determining, via a detection of the footstep by the microphone, an acoustic property of the surface;
at a second time, detecting a collision of a virtual object with the surface;
in accordance with said detecting the collision:
presenting to the user, on the display, a view of the collision;
generating an audio signal based on the collision and based further on the acoustic property of the surface; and
presenting to the user, via the audio output, concurrently with presenting the view of the collision, the audio signal.
