Abstract: A method includes: recording a series of frames; recording a set of motion data representing motion of the mobile device; detecting relative positions of a 3D constellation of objects based on the series of frames and the set of motion data; generating classifications of the 3D constellation of objects by calculating a classification of each object in a set of object classes; calculating a transform aligning the 3D constellation of objects with a 3D localization map; accessing a set of augmented reality assets defined by the 3D localization map; calculating a position of the mobile device relative to the 3D localization map based on the transform and the set of motion data; and rendering the set of augmented reality assets based on positions of the set of augmented reality assets in the 3D localization map and based on the position of the mobile device in the 3D localization map.

Abstract: A method includes: detecting an object in a first image; receiving a selection of the object depicted in the image; associating the object with a second device based on the selection; and, in response to the selection: recording a series of odometry data; estimating a location of the first device based on the odometry data; recording a series of images; estimating a location of the second device based on the images; calculating a first reference vector in the reference frame of the first device defining the location of the second device relative to the location of the first device; receiving, from the second device, a second reference vector; calculating a rotation and an offset between the reference vectors; and transforming the reference frame of the first device to a common reference based on the rotation and the offset.
