Systems and methods for augmented reality

An augmented reality display system, comprising:

• a hand-held component coupled to an electromagnetic field emitter, the electromagnetic field emitter emitting a magnetic field;
• a head-mounted component having a display system that displays virtual content to a user, the head mounted component coupled to an electromagnetic sensor measuring a parameter related to a magnetic flux at the electromagnetic sensor resulting from the magnetic field, wherein a head pose of the head-mounted component in a known coordinate system is known;
• a depth sensor measuring a distance in the known coordinate system;
• and
• a controller communicatively coupled to the hand-held component, the head-mounted component, and the depth sensor, the controller receiving the parameter related to the magnetic flux at the electromagnetic sensor from the head mounted component and receiving the distance from the depth sensor,
• wherein the controller determines a hand pose of the hand-held component based at least in part on the parameter related to the magnetic flux measured by the electromagnetic sensor and the distance measured by the depth sensor, and
• wherein the depth sensor comprises a depth camera having a first field of view (FOV).
