Abstract

Systems and methods for strobe tracking of Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs) in virtual, augmented, and mixed reality (xR) applications are described. In some embodiments, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include a host processor; and a memory coupled to the host processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution, cause the IHS to: receive an image of a strobe source captured by a camera; determine an instantaneous velocity of an HMD based upon the image; and render an xR frame for display by the HMD based, at least in part, upon the determination.
