Abstract

A method includes a computing system associated with a first artificial-reality device accessing sensor data of a real environment, generating a first plurality of feature descriptors for the real environment, and generating a second plurality of feature descriptors for the real environment based on the first plurality of feature descriptors, wherein the second plurality of feature descriptors have lower detail than the first plurality of feature descriptors. The computing system may further cause the first plurality of feature descriptors to be transmitted using a wireless connection, wherein the transmitted first plurality of feature descriptors are configured to be converted into a third plurality of feature descriptors different from the second plurality of feature descriptors. The third plurality of feature descriptors are configured to be used by a second artificial-reality device for tracking the real environment. The computing system tracks the real environment using the second plurality of feature descriptors.
