Abstract

A method for aligning coordinate systems of user devices in an augmented reality system using somatic points of a user's hand as alignment markers. Images captured from multiple user devices are used to align the reference coordinate systems of the user devices to a common reference coordinate system. In some examples, user devices capture images of a hand of a user and use object recognition to identify somatic points as alignment markers. The somatic points of a user device are translated to a common reference coordinate system determined by another user device.
