Abstract
Techniques for facilitating calibration of an IPD for an ER system are disclosed. A current IPD setting for the ER system is determined. An object in a scene is selected. A first distance between the ER system and the object is determined. A hologram is generated, where this hologram includes at least one boundary region that corresponds to at least one boundary region of the object. The hologram is displayed in the scene. The hologram is displayed based on the current IPD setting for the ER system. User input adjusts the current IPD setting such that a new IPD setting is provided to the ER system. The hologram is displayed in the scene based on the new IPD setting. Based on the new IPD setting, the hologram is caused to align with the object, thereby calibrating the IPD setting.
