Abstract: A computing device and method are provided for accelerating the coarse relocalization process of the computing device by generating a current fingerprint using signal data detected by sensors, statistically analyzing the current fingerprint for proximity to candidate fingerprints in fingerprint data to generate a ranked list, and subsequently retrieving map data corresponding to the closest matching fingerprints in the ranked list. The computing device may comprise a processor, a memory operatively coupled to the processor, and a fingerprint program stored in the memory and executed by the processor.

Abstract: A computing device is provided, including a display configured to display a plurality of holograms superimposed upon a physical environment. The computing device may further comprise a processor configured to store in non-volatile memory a representation of the physical environment, including a plurality of hologram anchors indicating locations at which the holograms are displayed. The processor may store a priority level of each hologram anchor, wherein each priority level is selected from a plurality of priority levels including a high priority level and a low priority level, and wherein at least one hologram anchor has the low priority level. The processor may determine that a total size of the plurality of hologram anchors exceeds a predetermined size threshold. The processor may, for at least one hologram anchor assigned the low priority level, delete that hologram anchor from the representation of the physical environment.
