Original Abstract Submitted

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to user tracking. A device may identify metadata comprising depth sensing information and camera information received from an in-room device located at a first location having a first camera. The device may perform face recognition on one or more in-room users. The device may calculate a distance of a first in-room user based on the metadata and a first number of pixels across the face of the first in-room user. The device may calculate a distance between the first in-room user and a second in-room user based on the metadata and the first number of pixels across the face of the first in-room user and a number of pixels across the face of the second in-room user.
