Abstract

Embodiments of systems and methods for backchannel encoding in virtual, augmented, or mixed reality (xR) applications in connectivity-constrained environments are described. In some embodiments, an Head-Mounted Device (HMD) may include a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the HMD to: encode each of a plurality of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) landmarks, in part, based upon the SLAM landmark's distance to the HMD; and transmit the encoded SLAM landmarks to an Information Handling System (IHS) coupled to the HMD.
