A method for detecting a loop closure is described. A device accesses pose information and a three-dimensional map of feature points generated by a visual inertia system of the device. The device splits the pose information into a translational part and a rotational part. The device limits the translational part to two-dimensional coordinates and estimates two-dimensional information of the limited translational part based on an accumulator voting space. The device determines an updated pose of the device based on the estimated two-dimensional information, the rotational part, and the three-dimensional map. The pose information is updated with the updated pose.

Voting space-based loop closure detection

A system and method for offloading object detection are described. A server receives first sensor data from a first sensor of an augmented reality (AR) display device. The first sensor data indicates a pose of the AR display device relative to a first reference coordinate system. The server detects a physical object using second sensor data received from a second sensor of the AR display device. The server determines, based on the second sensor data, a pose of the physical object relative to the AR display device. The server then determines the pose of the physical object relative to the first reference coordinate system based on the pose of the physical object relative to the AR display device and the pose of the AR display device relative to the first reference coordinate system.
