Lecture 23: Virtual Reality (69)

I'm not quite understanding how the tracks the 3D position. I can understand rotation being tracked, but position in X,Y,Z space seems like it needs something like lidar or stereo sensors

How is the process of calculating the 6 DOF impacted when there are rapid movements or changes in lighting conditions that might affect marker visibility?

My understanding is that there would be some sensor(s) that maintain a true origin position and degrees of rotation and then movement of the headset/head pose is based off that origin position. And then to translate head position into the display, tracking differences to the relative 3D position markers can be translated into the scene with solving the mapping equations.

In the context of head pose estimation, which factors could lead to inaccuracies in the 6 degrees of freedom calculation, and how are these typically mitigated in VR systems to ensure a seamless user experience?

6-DOF (Six Degrees of Freedom) head pose estimation refers to the process of determining the position and orientation of a user's head in three-dimensional space using six degrees of freedom: three for translation (moving in x, y, and z directions) and three for rotation (pitch, yaw, and roll).
