  • Patent number: 9595125
    Abstract: Techniques are presented for expanding a digital representation of a physical plane from a physical scene. In some aspects, a method may include determining an orientation and an initial portion of a physical plane in the scene, and subdividing a rectified image for the scene into a plurality of grid cells. For the grid cells, an image signature may be generated. A grid cell contiguous to the obtained initial portion of the plane is determined to include part of the plane. An iterative process may be performed for each neighboring grid cell from the grid cell contiguous to at least part of the obtained initial portion, determining whether the neighboring grid cell is to be included as part of the plane if the image signature of said neighboring grid cell is similar to the image signature of a grid cell already determined to be included as part of the plane.

  • Patent number: 9286727
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for presenting a representation of an augmented real-world setting are presented. In some embodiments, a method includes presenting a representation of an augmented real-world setting. The method includes capturing a plurality of images of a real-world setting. The method also includes analyzing one or more real-world objects within the plurality of images of the real-world setting. The method further includes receiving information pertaining to a real-world product, wherein the information is indicative of first physical dimensions of the real-world product during a first mode of operation and second physical dimensions of the real-world product during a second mode of operation and overlaying an augmented reality object depicting the real-world product during the first mode of operation, and having the first physical dimensions, within at least one of the plurality of images of the real-world setting, based at least in part on the analyzing step.
