Hi Krishna\_Kishore,

To be clear, is the question about how to start XR after pressing a button other than the default UI Babylon.js comes with? If so, I think you can do this by [calling `enterXRAsync`](https://doc.babylonjs.com/typedoc/classes/babylon.webxrexperiencehelper#enterxrasync) on your `WebXRExperienceHelper` in the callback for your button. This can get a little fiddly sometimes depending on what you’re reacting to and how you called back to it, but as long the thing that set off your callback was a user interaction such as a button press I think you should be fine. Hope this helps, and best of luck!
