Abstract: An approach for simulating items in an environment, such as a room, is disclosed. A package file can store information including an image of the environment and metadata including an identifier that uniquely identifies a selected image. The package file can be used to regenerate a simulation of the item arranged over the image of the environment. Later changes can be made to the simulation of the item by accessing the metadata.

Abstract: An object can be simulated in an environment using a three-dimensional model of the object as viewed from a virtual camera at a position in the environment. The position in the environment can be determined using user input or through visual analysis of a video recording. Composite frames depicting the modeled object may be played back based on the orientation of the playback device.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for simulating one or more virtual objects (e.g., renders) in specified spatial areas of a real-world environment. Options of item models for modeling in a given spatial area can be filtered based on specified dimensions and identified features of an image of a given spatial area. A selected item model can be rendered and continuously updated on a display device as the client device is physical moved.
