  • Patent number: 11779846
    Abstract: A method for analyzing a virtual object in a virtual environment includes obtaining an image of a first real-world object and transmitting, to a data processing system, the image of the first real-world object. The method includes creating a digital representation of the first real-world object and assigning local attributes to one or more portions of the digital representation corresponding to elements of the first real-world object. The method includes obtaining an image of an updated configuration of the first real-world object and transmitting, to the data processing system, the image of the updated configuration. The method includes creating, by the data processing system, a digital representation, of the updated configuration. The method includes comparing, by the data processing system, the digital representation of the first real-world object and the digital representation of the updated first real-world object to identify rearranged parts and assign local attributes.
