The technology disclosed relates to a method of realistic rendering of a real object as a virtual object in a virtual space using an offset in the position of the hand in a three-dimensional (3D) sensory space. An offset between expected positions of the eye(s) of a wearer of a head mounted device and a sensor attached to the head mounted device for sensing a position of at least one hand in a three-dimensional (3D) sensory space is determined. A position of the hand in the three-dimensional (3D) sensory space can be sensed using a sensor. The sensed position of the hand can be transformed by the offset into a re-rendered position of the hand as would appear to the wearer of the head mounted device if the wearer were looking at the actual hand. The re-rendered hand can be depicted to the wearer of the head mounted device.
