    Hi guys, we are building an arena based VR exhibit (location based entertainment) using Windows MR immersive headsets. We have been using anchors to make world scale environment where people use backpack PC to move around arena. What we are not getting is, how to calibrate everything with headset, like syncing physical and virtual world. Whatever we have done now, some times works/syncs properly and some times it does not. What can we make to improve tracking of headset itself in the arena? Also I saw LBE video of Windows they mentioned about scanning arena and transferring maps to another headset. Where are these tools available? We searched everywhere but they were not available. Does anyone know where do I find those or point me in right direction on how do it myself.

    It sounds like they might be using spatial mapping for map the surrounding area of a play space. Web B or the Device Portal has a spatial mapping tab for the HoloLens or MR to scan, save the scan, and load other scans.

    Might be a good place to start

    But in this document Microsoft has mentioned that Spatial Mapping is not supported by HMDs/Immersive headsets.
