Abstract
Artificial reality (AR) systems track pose and skeletal positioning for multiple co-located participants, each having a head mounted display (HMD). Participants can join a shared artificial reality event or experience with others in the same location. Each participant's HMD can independently render AR content for the participant based on the participant's pose and pose information obtained from other participants' HMDs. A participating HMD may broadcast tracking estimates for skeletal points of interest (e.g., joints, finger tips, knees, ankle points, etc.) that are within the field-of-view of the HMD's cameras and/or sensors. A participating HMD may receive skeletal position information determined by other HMDs, and aggregate the received tracking information along with internal tracking information to construct an accurate, full estimate of its own pose and skeletal positioning information for its corresponding participant.
