Abstract
Example implementations are directed to recapturing or realigning a room or scene in an artificial reality (XR) environment as a three dimensional (3D) space. To initially capture a room, a user manually annotates, using an XR system, one or more walls around the XR system. The XR system then aligns or localizes itself relative to the room. Once a room is captured and stored, and the user in the future enters the room again, the XR system may not be able to align itself in the room due to, for example, lighting conditions. Rather than require the user to manually recapture every wall captured during the initial room capture, the XR system can select one wall for recapture and, after receiving an annotation or marking of the one wall from the user, use the selection to realign the XR system relative to the room.
