Abstract

A method for calibrating a visual-inertial tracking system is described. A device operates the visual-inertial tracking system without receiving a tracking request from a virtual object display application. In response to operating the visual-inertial tracking system, the device accesses sensor data from sensors at the device. The device identifies, based on the sensor data, a first calibration parameter value of the visual-inertial tracking system and stores the first calibration parameter value. The system detects a tracking request from the virtual object display application. In response to the tracking request, the system accesses the first calibration parameter value and determines a second calibration parameter value from the first calibration parameter value.
