1. A method comprising:
at a device including a display, an environmental sensor, one or more processors and a non-transitory memory:
obtaining visual content corresponding to a graphical environment that is different from a physical environment of the device;
detecting, via the environmental sensor, a current trajectory of a user within the physical environment corresponding to a first path between the user and an object in the graphical environment;
generating warped visual content by warping the visual content in response to an indication that the current trajectory of the user intersects with a physical object in the physical environment, wherein a location of the object in the graphical environment is shifted to change the current trajectory to a new trajectory of the user within the physical environment that does not intersect with the physical object corresponding to a second path between the user and the object in the graphical environment; and
displaying the warped visual content on the display.
