  • Patent number: 11747892
    Abstract: A computing system may receive sensor data from one or more sensors coupled to a user. Based on sensor data, the computing system may generate a first upper body pose that corresponds to a first portion of a body of the user, which comprises a head and an arm of the user. The computing system may process the upper body pose of the user to generate a temporal sequence of lower body poses comprising a first lower body pose associated with the first time and a second lower body pose associated with a second time, which may correspond to a second portion of the body of the user comprising a leg of the user. The computing system may generate one or more full body poses of the user based on at least the first upper body pose and the temporal sequence of lower body poses.

  • Patent number: 11156830
    Abstract: Artificial reality (AR) systems track pose and skeletal positioning for multiple co-located participants, each having a head mounted display (HMD). Participants can join a shared artificial reality event or experience with others in the same location. Each participant's HMD can independently render AR content for the participant based on the participant's pose and pose information obtained from other participants' HMDs. A participating HMD may broadcast tracking estimates for skeletal points of interest (e.g., joints, finger tips, knees, ankle points, etc.) that are within the field-of-view of the HMD's cameras and/or sensors. A participating HMD may receive skeletal position information determined by other HMDs, and aggregate the received tracking information along with internal tracking information to construct an accurate, full estimate of its own pose and skeletal positioning information for its corresponding participant.
