LOW POWER VISUAL TRACKING SYSTEMS

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for low-power visual tracking systems. An example method can include receiving one or more images captured by each image sensor system from a set of image sensor systems on a first device, the one or more images capturing a set of patterns on a second device, wherein the first device has lower power requirements than the second device, the set of patterns having a predetermined configuration on the second device; determining, from the one or more images captured by each image sensor system, a set of pixels corresponding to the set of patterns on the second device; determining, based on the set of pixels corresponding to the set of patterns, a location and relative pose in space of each pattern; and determining, based on the location and relative pose of each pattern, a pose of the first device relative to the second device.
