Method and system for practicing group formations using augmented reality

摘要

An application for use with a mobile computing device is described that enables group members of a group activity to view the positions of each member in one or more formations for the group activity. The application enables the user to select a formation for viewing and practicing in any location, whether indoors or outdoors and with or without other group members of the group activity. The application allows the user to toggle between a top-down view and an augmented reality view. The augmented reality view enables a user to view graphical indicators of each position of the user, whereby the graphical indicators are superimposed on a user's computing device in the real user environment. The augmented reality view provides a user with a better understanding of his or her positions in a real-world environment.
