Abstract
An XR system is provided that enhances user interaction within extended reality environments through precise hand scale estimation. The XR system is configured to capture tracking data of a user's hand as the user interacts with a mobile device. Concurrently, the XR system captures pose data of itself and uses the tracking data and the pose data to determine a reference line segment. This segment aids in calculating three-dimensional distances between node pairs of the user's hand. By employing these measurements, the XR system effectively calculates a hand scale factor that is used for accurately integrating the user's hands into an XR user interface.
