SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUGMENTED REALITY
First Claim
1. An augmented reality (AR) display system, comprising:
- an electromagnetic field emitter to emit a known magnetic field;
an electromagnetic sensor to measure a parameter related to a magnetic flux at the electromagnetic sensor as a result of the emitted known magnetic field, wherein world coordinates of the electromagnetic sensor are known;
a controller to determine pose information relative to the electromagnetic field emitter based at least in part on the measured parameter related to the magnetic flux at the electromagnetic sensor; and
a display system to display virtual content to a user based at least in part on the determined pose information relative to the electromagnetic field emitter.
