AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing augmented reality (AR) devices face computational and power constraints in estimating depth due to limited resources, necessitating full-image depth estimation that is computationally demanding.

Method used

A system that utilizes a 6DOF tracking system to predict the area of interest in the camera's field of view and estimates depth only for this limited region, reducing computational load and power consumption.

Benefits of technology

This approach conserves computational resources and power by focusing depth estimation on specific areas of interest, thereby improving AR device operation efficiency.
