Abstract
Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that provide shared extended reality (XR) experiences in which two or more users interact with their own sets of physical objects (e.g., cards, game pieces, dice, chips, etc.) during the shared experiences. Each user may have multiple physical objects, each of those physical objects having the same generic shape, size, etc., but having a unique fiducial marker. The unique fiducial marker of each physical object can be assigned to represent one of multiple virtual content items.
