Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving first information from a sensor associated with a first computing device, wherein the first information comprises information associated with first images captured at the first sensor; receiving second information from a second computing device, wherein the second information comprises information associated with second images captured at a sensor associated with the second computing device; identifying first points within the first images; identifying second points within the second images; and relocalizing the first and second computing devices within a shared augmented-reality environment by defining coordinate spaces based on the images and combining the coordinate spaces based on identified shared points.
