  • Patent number: 10915754
    Abstract: A method is provided for providing target object information to a mobile interface device user in a dynamic structural environment. The method includes receiving from the mobile interface device a request for target object information associated with a target object in the dynamic structural environment. A pose of the mobile interface device relative to the target object is determined accounting for spatial differences in the environment coordinate system resulting from changes in the dynamic structure. The method also includes assembling AR target object information for transmission to and display on the mobile interface device and transmitting the AR target object information to the mobile interface device for display in conjunction with a real-time view of the target object.
