Abstract: In one embodiment, a user-navigable 3-D virtual room-based user interface for a home automation system is provided. A control app renders and displays the user-navigable 3-D virtual room from a perspective defined by a virtual camera, wherein the control app renders the user-navigable 3-D virtual room based on data from at least one of a plurality of 2-D images of the physical room captured from different respective positions in the physical room. In response to an explicit navigation command or implicit action, the control app alters a position or orientation of the virtual camera. The control app re-renders and displays the user-navigable 3-D virtual room from a new perspective defined by the altered position or orientation, wherein the new perspective does not coincide with the position in the physical room from which any of the 2-D images were captured, by blending data from multiple 2-D images captured from different positions.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a user-navigable, three-dimensional (3-D) virtual room-based user interface for a home automation system is provided. Each user-navigable 3-D virtual room shows a substantially photo-realistic depiction of a corresponding physical room of the structure, including substantially photo-realistic depictions of boundaries of the physical room, furnishings present in the physical room, and devices present in the physical room that are under the control of the home automation system. A user may use explicit navigation commands or implicit actions to navigate within the user-navigable 3-D virtual room, moving a virtual camera in 3-D space to view the virtual room from different perspectives. By interacting with (e.g., touching, clicking on, etc.) substantially photorealistic depictions of the devices within the user-navigable 3-D virtual room, a user may is indicate changes to the state of corresponding devices in the physical room.
