Hello,

Does the number of anchors existing within a Space affect the fidelity of anchor tracking when localised within that Space?

Cheers.

The number of anchors does not affect the quality of localization. The device localizes into a space and tries to relocalize when head pose is regained or when the user moves 2 meters. The anchors are similar to empty transforms that are children of the Space.
