Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes generating, by a device, first tracking data using a first tracking algorithm, based on first video frames associated with a scene. An augmented-reality (AR) effect may be displayed based on the first tracking data. The device may generate a first confidence score associated with the first tracking data and determine that the first confidence score is above a threshold. The device may generate, based on second video frames subsequent to the first video frames, second tracking data using the first tracking algorithm. The device may determine that an associated second confidence score is below a threshold. In response, the device may generate, based on third video frames subsequent to the second video frames, third tracking data using a second tracking algorithm different from the first. The device may then display the AR effect based on the third tracking data.
