Abstract
The present invention discloses systems and methods for both viewing and interacting with a virtual reality (VR), an augmented reality (AR) or a mixed reality (MR). More specifically, the systems and methods allow the user to interact with aspects of such realities including virtual items presented in such realities or within such environments by manipulating a control device that has an inside-out camera mounted on-board. The apparatus or system uses two distinct representations including a reduced representation in determining the pose of the control device and uses these representations to compute an interactive pose portion of the control device to be used for interacting with the virtual item. The reduced representation is consonant with a constrained motion of the control device.
