Claim 25:
26. A method of determining distance in an AR/MR/VR display, the method comprising;
capturing in stereo images using optical camera(s) for a binocular optical waveguide combiner system, the optical cameras having a field of view of at least one displayable virtual object and of at least one real object;
extracting from the captured images of the real object(s) at least one virtual object representing the real object(s);
recognizing the extracted virtual object(s);
determining depth perception cues from the images captured by the optical cameras;
determining the distance of the real object(s) from the optical waveguide combiners based on the determined depth perception cues and object recognition.
