Abstract

A system and method for establishing anchors in an augmented reality environment activates an anchor device to continuously transmit a first spatial information packet and a second spatial information packet, the first and second packets being respectively sent through a first communication technology and a second communication technology. The first spatial information packet and the second spatial information contain an identification (ID) and an angle information of the anchor device. An augmented reality (AR) device receives the first spatial information packet and the second spatial information packet. The AR device further includes a processing unit. A spatial relationship between the AR device and the anchor device is obtained through the processing unit according to the first spatial information packet and the second spatial information packet. The spatial relationship includes a position of the anchor device relative to the AR device, and the horizontal and vertical distances therebetween.
