Abstract
A device configured with a user interface (UI) that changes based on a position of a user determines the position of the user through multiple data sources including camera based head tracking and output from motion sensors such as a gyroscope. Each data source may output its own estimated head position. The device may apply a reliability weight to the head position determined by each data source. A composite head position is then determined from the weighted position. The composite position is then used to render the UI.
