This paper addresses this gap by systematically assessing the Magic Leap 2 (ML2) controller’s tracking performance. Using a robotic arm for repeatable motion (EN ISO 9283) and an optical tracking system as ground truth, our protocol evaluates static and dynamic performance under various conditions, including realistic paths from a hydrogen leak inspection use case. The results provide a quantitative baseline of the ML2 controller’s accuracy and repeatability and present a robust, transferable evaluation methodology. The findings provide a basis to assess the controller’s suitability for the inspection use case and similar industrial sensor-based AR guidance tasks.enAugmented RealitySensor GuidanceTool TrackingAccuracy AnalysisMagic Leap 2Hydrogen Leak DetectionTechnology::629: Other Branches::629.1: Aviation::629.13: Aviation EngineeringEvaluating Magic Leap 2 controller tracking for sensor tool guidance in AR-based industrial inspectionsConference Paper10.1109/ismar-adjunct68609.2025.00089Conference Paper
