Abstract
Embodiments provide for reconciling a first map of an environment created by a first device with a second map of the environment created by a second device by determining a first confidence score for a first location of a given object in the first map; determining a second confidence score for a second location of the given object in the second map; inserting the given object into a reconciled map at a position based on the first confidence score and the second confidence score; anchoring an Augmented Reality object in the reconciled map at coordinates based on the position of the given object; and outputting the reconciled map to an Augmented Reality device.
