Recent development allows for navigating a virtual environment by real walking, thanks to the SLAM technology, which localizes a user’s position and builds a map on the fly. For doing so, this technology relies on visible static features in the tracking space, while other users are filtered out and not considered for positional tracking. Hence, the system presumes that each user can track his position individually. However, far very large tracking spaces these visible features might be too far away. To overcome this problem, a daisy-chaining of tracking information of users was developed, were only one observed user needs an absolute reference.
