Systems and methods for a spatially aware control device

A presentation system comprising:

• a control device including:
• a processor,
• a communication device operable to data communicate with the processor,
• a positional sensor operable to data communicate with the processor,
• an orientation sensor operable to data communicate with the processor,
• a ranging device operable to data communicate with the processor, and
• a hardware storage device operable to data communicate with the processor, the hardware storage device having instructions stored thereon and executable by the processor to cause the control device to:
• based at least partially on receiving a pointer request:
• determine pointer information relative to the control device from the ranging device and the orientation sensor, and
• transmit the pointer information;
• and
• a base device including:
• a camera having a field of view (FOV),
• a processor, and
• a hardware storage device having instructions stored thereon and executable by the processor to cause the base device to:
• obtain positional information of the control device,
• move the FOV based at least partially on the positional information,
• receive the pointer information, and
• based at least partially on receiving the pointer information, move the FOV based at least partially on the pointer information.

A method comprising:

• at a base device:
• in a tracking state:
• obtaining positional information of a control device;
• moving a field of view (FOV) of a capture device based on the positional information in a tracking state, wherein the position information indicates a location of the control device relative to the base device;
• changing to a POI state;
• in the POI state:
• obtaining pointer information of a point-of-interest (POI) from the control device;
• and
• moving the FOV of the capture device based on the pointer information while in the POI state.
