Abstract: The system generates real-time augmented reality video for TV broadcast, cinema or video games. The system includes a monoscopic video camera including a body, a stereoscopic video camera, and a processor. The system includes sensors, including multiple non-optical sensors, which provide real-time positioning data defining the 3D position and 3D orientation of the monoscopic video camera, or enable the 3D position and 3D orientation of the monoscopic video camera to be calculated. The processor is configured to use the real-time positioning data automatically to create, recall, render or modify computer generated 3D objects. The processor is configured to determine the 3D position and orientation of the monoscopic video camera with reference to a 3D map of the real-world generated whilst the camera is being used to capture video. The processor is configured to track the scene without a requirement for an initial or prior survey of the scene.

Abstract: A method of mixing or compositing in real-time, computer generated 3D objects and a video feed from a film camera in which the body of the film camera can be moved in 3D and sensors in or attached to the camera provide real-time positioning data defining the 3D position and 3D orientation of the camera, or enabling the 3D position to be calculated.
