Abstract
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for providing situational awareness to users of wearable extended reality appliances are disclosed. In one implementation, a non-transitory computer-readable medium contains instructions that when executed by at least one processor cause the at least one processor to: cause virtual content to be displayed through a first wearable extended reality appliance; detect a second wearable extended reality appliance in proximity to the first wearable extended reality appliance; establish a link between the first wearable extended reality appliance and the second wearable extended reality appliance; and transmit data representing at least a portion of the virtual content in an obscured form to the second wearable extended reality appliance, wherein the obscured form provides an indication of a position of the at least a portion of the virtual content in a three-dimensional space without revealing substance of the virtual content in obscured form.
