  • Patent number: 11513605
    Abstract: Examples of mixed reality computing devices that utilize remote sensors and local sensors as input devices are disclosed. In one example, a mixed reality computing device comprises an image sensor, a remote input device, a processor, and storage comprising stored instructions. The stored instructions are executable by the processor to perform object motion tracking and environmental tracking based on output from the image sensor, and in response to detecting that the remote input device is in use, adjust a parameter of the motion tracking while maintaining the environmental tracking.
    Type: Grant
