Abstract: A method for rendering perspective adjusted views of a virtual object in a real world environment is provided. A registration code is generated for a first device and includes a static portion for device identification and a dynamic portion for a location and orientation of the first device. The dynamic portion of the registration code changes based on time passage and movement of the first device. A distance and orientation of the first device is determined with respect to a second device based on a location and orientation of the second device at a particular time and the registration code, which is captured by the second device at the particular time. The second device captures the registration code via the first device or a different device. A display of a virtual object is perspective adjusted based on the distance and orientation of the devices.
