Abstract
An apparatus configured to be worn on a head of a user, includes: a screen configured to present graphics to the user; a camera system configured to view an environment in which the user is located; and a processing unit configured to determine a map based at least in part on output(s) from the camera system, wherein the map is configured for use by the processing unit to localize the user with respect to the environment; wherein the processing unit of the apparatus is also configured to obtain a metric indicating a likelihood of success to localize the user using the map, and wherein the processing unit is configured to obtain the metric by computing the metric or by receiving the metric.
