Abstract
A method for depth sensor aided estimation of virtual reality environment boundaries includes generating depth data at a depth sensor of an electronic device based on a local environment proximate the electronic device. A set of initial boundary data is estimated based on the depth data, wherein the set of initial boundary data defines an exterior boundary of a virtual bounded floor plan. The virtual bounded floor plan is generated based at least in part on the set of initial boundary data. Additionally, a relative pose of the electronic device within the virtual bounded floor plan is determined and a collision warning is displayed on a display of the electronic device based on the relative pose.
