Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media for unified scene acquisition and pose tracking in a wearable display are disclosed. According to one aspect, a system for unified scene acquisition and pose tracking in a wearable display includes a wearable frame configured to be worn by a user. Mounted on the frame are: at least one sensor for acquiring scene information for a real scene proximate to the user, the scene information including images and depth information; a pose tracker for estimating the user's head pose based on the acquired scene information; a rendering unit for generating a virtual reality (VR) image based on the acquired scene information and estimated head pose; and at least one display for displaying to the user a combination of the generated VR image and the scene proximate to the user.
