  • Patent number: 11922560
    Abstract: One example provides a computing device configured to capture, via the camera, first image data imaging a first physical world location, create a first spatial representation of the first physical world location based on the first image data, receive a user input defining a pose of a first virtual spatial anchor point relative to a feature imaged in the first image data, track user movement to a second physical world location, capture second image data imaging the second physical world location, receive a user input defining a pose of a second virtual spatial anchor point relative to a feature imaged in the second image data, and send, to a remote computing device, data representing the first spatial representation, the pose of first spatial anchor point, the second spatial representation, the pose of second spatial anchor point, and a positional relationship between first and second spatial anchor points.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20230091536
    Abstract: The description relates to cameras, such as security cameras, and providing guidance for positioning cameras to achieve desired goals. One example can receive an image of a scene overlaid with transparent indicators that reflect accuracy of object detection in individual regions of the image. The example can correlate input received from the user on the display relative to the regions. The example can analyze subsequent images of the scene with rules derived from the input from the user.
