Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method may include comprising identifying, within a real-world environment, a position of a user relative to a safety boundary. The position of the user is identified by a head-mounted display system comprising a display device. The display device is configured to at least partially obscure visibility of the real-world environment to the user. The method may further include selecting, based on the position of the user, at least a portion of a model of the real-world environment, rendering the portion of the model of the real-world environment, and displaying the rendered portion of the model of the real-world environment via the display device as a notification of the position of the user relative to the safety boundary. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
