Abstract(in English) In the Mixed Reality, occlusions and shadows are important to realize a natural fusion between the real and virtual worlds. In order to do this, it is necessary to acquire the dense depth information of the real world from the observer's viewing position. In the MR, the depth sensor shuld be attached to the See-Through HMD of the observer because he/she is assumed to move around. It should be small and light enough to be attached to the HMD and can produce reliable dense depth map. Unfortunately, however, no such depth (or range) sensors are available. In this paper, we propose a client-server sensing scheme to solve this problem. In this scheme, called Share-Z, a server sensor (or sensors) located near the observer supplies the depth information to the client sensor mounted on the HMD.
