Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for using tag placement to determine 3D object orientation. An extended reality (XR) system detects, in a two-dimensional image, a data marker associated with an object viewable in an XR environment. The XR system applies a first function to the data marker to generate a rectilinear data marker by transforming a quadrilateral that circumscribes the data marker into a rectangle. The XR system determines a three-dimensional orientation of the object based on transformation of the data marker to the rectilinear data marker. The XR system determines an XR object associated with the data marker. The XR system applies a second function to the XR object, where the second function uses the three-dimensional orientation of the data marker to modify an orientation of the XR object to generate a transformed XR object. The XR system causes the transformed XR object to be displayed within the two-dimensional image.

Abstract: A device is fitted with a camera and an extended reality (XR) software application program executing on a processor. Via the XR software application program, a technique is performed for automating adaptive workflows in the XR environment. In the technique, the XR software application program determines an identifier of an asset in the XR environment. The XR software application program sends to a data intake and query system a request associated with a playbook having one or more execution tasks associated with the asset. The XR software application program receives the playbook and generates an XR object associated with an execution task in the playbook. The XR software application program causes the XR object to be displayed at a location in the XR environment corresponding to a determined location, relative to the asset, of a portion of the asset with which the execution task is associated.

Then, the electronic device may acquire the image of the document using an imaging device, which is integrated into the electronic device. Next, the electronic device may extract the textual information from the image of the document using optical character recognition.
