    Abstract: A method for dynamically initializing a 3 degrees of freedom (3DOF) tracking device is described. In one aspect, the method includes accessing a gyroscope signal from a gyroscope of the 3DOF tracking device, accessing an accelerometer signal from an accelerometer of the 3DOF tracking device, determining an initial state includes a combination of an initial orientation, an initial position, and an initial velocity of the 3DOF tracking device, the initial state indicating a starting condition of the 3DOF tracking device, integrating the gyroscope signal and the accelerometer signal to obtain orientation and position signals using the initial state, and refining an inclination signal of the orientation signal using the position signal.

    Abstract: A method for correcting a bending of a flexible device is described. In one aspect, the method includes accessing feature data of a first stereo frame that is generated by stereo optical sensors of the flexible device, the feature data generated based on a visual-inertial odometry (VIO) system of the flexible device, accessing depth map data of the first stereo frame, the depth map data generated based on a depth map system of the flexible device, estimating a pitch-roll bias and a yaw bias based on the features data and the depth map data of the first stereo frame, and generating a second stereo frame after the first stereo frame, the second stereo frame based on the pitch-roll bias and the yaw bias of the first stereo frame.

    Abstract: A method for limiting motion blur in a visual tracking system is described. In one aspect, the method includes accessing a first image generated by an optical sensor of the visual tracking system, identifying camera operating parameters of the optical sensor for the first image, determining a motion of the optical sensor for the first image, determining a motion blur level of the first image based on the camera operating parameters of the optical sensor and the motion of the optical sensor, and adjusting the camera operating parameters of the optical sensor based on the motion blur level.

    Abstract: A method for adjusting camera intrinsic parameters of a multi-camera visual tracking device is described. In one aspect, a method for calibrating the multi-camera visual tracking system includes disabling a first camera of the multi-camera visual tracking system while a second camera of the multi-camera visual tracking system is enabled, detecting a first set of features in a first image generated by the first camera after detecting that the temperature of the first camera is within the threshold of the factory calibration temperature of the first camera, and accessing and correcting intrinsic parameters of the second camera based on the projection of the first set of features in the second image and a second set of features in the second image.
