Abstract: Techniques and systems are provided for edge detection is provided. The process can include obtaining a depth information and location information for a point detected in an obtained image; predicting a pose for the point based on the depth information, location information, and information about movement of a device; determining a search range and a search direction based on the location information and predicted pose; performing normalized cross correlation (NCC) matching between pixels of the obtained image based on the determined search range and search direction to identify an edge; and outputting a location of the edge.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are described herein for processing images. The systems and techniques can be implemented by various types of systems, such as by an extended reality (XR) system or device. In some cases, a first processor receives an image of an environment captured by an image sensor, identifies features depicted in the image, and generates descriptors for the features. The first processor sends the descriptors to a second processor, which may be more powerful than the first processor. The second processor receives the descriptors. The second processor associates the plurality of features with a map of the environment based on at least a subset of the plurality of descriptors. For example, the second processor can track at least a subset of the features based on at least a subset of the descriptors and based on feature information from one or more additional images of the environment.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for distributed tracking and mapping for extended reality experiences. An example method can include computing, at a device, a pose of the device at a future time, the future time being determined based on a communication latency between the device and a mapping backend system; sending, to the mapping backend system, the pose of the device; receiving, from the mapping backend system, a map slice including map points corresponding to a scene associated with the device, the map slice being generated based on the pose of the device, wherein the map points correspond to the predicted pose; and computing an updated pose of the device based on the map slice.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for immersive extended reality experiences on mobile platforms. In some examples, a method can include obtaining sensor measurements from one or more sensors on a mobile platform and/or a device associated with a user in the mobile platform, the sensor measurements including motion parameters associated with the mobile platform and the user; identifying features of the mobile platform and an environment outside of the mobile platform; tracking, using the sensor measurements, a first pose of the mobile platform relative to the environment outside of the mobile platform; tracking, using the sensor measurements, a second pose of the user relative to at least one of the features of the mobile platform; and tracking, based on the first pose and the second pose, a third pose of the user relative to at least one of the features of the environment outside of the mobile platform.
