Abstract

A head-mounted display (HMD) device may include an at least partially see-through display, one or more location sensors, a communication unit, and a processor. The HMD device may determine at least a location of the one or more location sensors in a physical environment. The communication unit may receive peer location data from at least one peer HMD device in the physical environment. The processor of the HMD device may determine a field of view of the HMD device, identify a display position at which the augmented reality image can be displayed and viewed in the physical environment by the HMD device and the at least one peer HMD device, and display the augmented reality image at the display position on the at least partially see-through display of the HMD device.
