1. A method for a first extended reality (XR) device or a second XR device, the method comprising:
retrieving first information defining a first safe area in a physical space and second information defining a second safe area in the physical space,
wherein the first safe area and the second safe area are defined by at least one XR device;
determining that an overlap exists in the physical space of the first safe area and the second safe area;
reconfiguring, by control circuitry, at least one of the first safe area in the physical space for the first XR device or the second safe area in the physical space for the second XR device, wherein, after the reconfiguring, the first safe area and the second safe area include no overlap with each other in the physical space; and
generating a signal to at least one of the first XR device or the second XR device notifying of the reconfiguring of the at least one of the first safe area or the second safe area.
