Abstract
A method of pose tracking, a method of generating a stable key frame for pose tracking, a portable device, and a head-mounted display are provided. The method of pose tracking includes: receiving a stable key frame from the head-mounted display; receiving map data from the head-mounted display; determining whether the stable key frame is available according to information, wherein the information is obtained from the head-mounted display; and in response to the stable key frame being available, updating a map for the pose tracking according to the stable key frame and the map data.
Claims17
A method of pose tracking, adapted to a portable device communicatively connected to a head-mounted display, comprising:
- receiving a stable key frame from the head-mounted display;
- receiving map data from the head-mounted display;
- determining whether the stable key frame is available according to information, wherein the information is obtained from the head-mounted display;
- and
- in response to the stable key frame being available, updating a map for the pose tracking according to the stable key frame and the map data.
A method of generating a stable key frame for pose tracking, adapted to a head-mounted display, comprising:
- capturing a plurality of key frames during a time period, wherein the plurality of key frames are spatially correlated to each other, wherein the plurality of key frames comprises a first key frame;
- determining whether the first key frame is stable according to the plurality of key frames;
- in response to the first key frame being stable, determining the first key frame as a first stable key frame;
- and
- outputting the first stable key frame.
A portable device, comprising:
- a transceiver, communicatively connecting to a head-mounted display;
- and
- a processor, coupled to the transceiver, wherein the processor is configured to:
- receive a stable key frame from the head-mounted display;
- receive map data from the head-mounted display;
- determine whether the stable key frame is available according to information, wherein the information is obtained from the head-mounted display;
- and
- in response to the stable key frame being available, update a map for the pose tracking according to the stable key frame and the map data.
A head-mounted display, comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- a processor, coupled to the transceiver, wherein the processor is configured to:
- capture a plurality of key frames during a time period, wherein the plurality of key frames are spatially correlated to each other, wherein the plurality of key frames comprises a first key frame;
- determine whether the first key frame is stable according to the plurality of key frames;
- in response to the first key frame being stable, determine the first key frame as a first stable key frame;
- and
- output the first stable key frame via the transceiver.
