Original Abstract Submitted
A first extended reality (XR) device and a second XR device are colocated in an environment. The first XR device captures sensory data of a wearer of the second XR device. The sensory data is used to determine a time offset between a first clock of the first XR device and a second clock of the second XR device. The first clock and the second clock are synchronized based on the time offset and a shared coordinate system is established. The shared coordinate system enables alignment of virtual content that is simultaneously presented by the first XR device and the second XR device based on the synchronization of the first clock and the second clock.
