    摘要: Head-mounted augmented reality (AR) devices can track pose of a wearer's head to provide a three-dimensional virtual representation of objects in the wearer's environment. An electromagnetic (EM) tracking system can track head or body pose. A handheld user input device can include an EM emitter that generates an EM field, and the head-mounted AR device can include an EM sensor that senses the EM field. EM information from the sensor can be analyzed to determine location and/or orientation of the sensor and thereby the wearer's pose. The EM emitter and sensor may utilize time division multiplexing (TDM) or dynamic frequency tuning to operate at multiple frequencies. Voltage gain control may be implemented in the transmitter, rather than the sensor, allowing smaller and lighter weight sensor designs. The EM sensor can implement noise cancellation to reduce the level of EM interference generated by nearby audio speakers.

    摘要: A method of using a first device to locate a second device is disclosed. The first device, while in a first mode, transmits a first signal and receives a second signal comprising a reflection of the first signal by the second device. The first device determines, based on the received second signal, a position of the second device relative to the first device. The first device transitions to a second mode, and while in the second mode, receives a third signal from the second device. The first device determines, based on the third signal, an orientation of the second device relative to the first device. The first device comprises one or more receiving antennas, and the second device comprises one or more transmitting antennas. The third signal corresponds to a transmitting antenna of the second device.
