A head-mounted device (HMD) is configured to perform depth detection in conjunction with movement tracking. The HMD includes a stereo camera pair comprising a first camera and a second camera, both of which are mounted on the HMD. The fields of view for both of the cameras overlap to form an overlapping field of view. These cameras are configured to detect both visible light and infrared (IR) light. The HMD also includes an IR dot-pattern illuminator that is configured to emit an IR dot-pattern illumination. The HMD uses the IR dot-pattern illumination to determine an object's depth. The HMD also includes one or more flood IR light illuminators that emit a flood of IR light. The HMD uses the flood of IR light to track at least its own movements, and sometimes even hand movements, in various environments, even low light environments.
