HEAD-MOUNTED DISPLAY FOR VIRTUAL AND MIXED REALITY WITH INSIDE-OUT POSITIONAL, USER BODY AND ENVIRONMENT TRACKING

Abstract:

A Head-Mounted Display system together with associated techniques for performing accurate and automatic inside-out positional, user body and environment tracking for virtual or mixed reality are disclosed. The system uses computer vision methods and data fusion from multiple sensors to achieve real-time tracking. High frame rate and low latency is achieved by performing part of the processing on the HMD itself.
