AUGMENTED REALITY SYSTEM USING VISUAL OBJECT RECOGNITION AND STORED GEOMETRY TO CREATE AND RENDER VIRTUAL OBJECTS

摘要

A three-dimensional geometry of an object is stored, and a representation of the object that can facilitate identification of the object via a camera is also stored. An image of the object is obtained via a scene in the camera. The presence of the object is detected from the image via the stored representation of the object. The three-dimensional geometry to the object is mapped within the scene based on the detection. A virtual object is attached to a point that is at a fixed orientation relative to the three-dimensional geometry based on the mapping. The virtual object is rendered on an augmented reality display as being located at the point and at the fixed orientation regardless of a change in location of the augmented reality display relative to the object.
