Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for generating an augmented reality representation of a real-world environment. An augmented reality (AR) system receives a captured digital image of the real-world environment and generates an initial estimate of a candidate point specifying an estimated location of an annotation point of a virtual object model within the captured digital image of the real-world environment. An accuracy of the initial estimate is calculated based on a function of characteristics of the annotation point and a function of characteristics of the candidate point and, in response to the evaluation of accuracy indicating that the initial estimate is not accurate, an annotation point location refinement operation is performed to generate a refined candidate point for aligning the annotation point with the captured digital image of the real-world environment. An AR representation of the real-world environment is generated based on the refined candidate point.

Abstract: A video is received. One or more subtitles are determined for the video. Whether a word found in a background of the video is similar to a word found in the one or more subtitles is determined. Responsive to determining the word found in the background of the video is similar to the word found in the one or more subtitles, one or more updated subtitles are generated. The one or more updated subtitles include the word found in the background of the video and remove the word found in the one or more subtitles that is similar. A metric for the one or more updated subtitles is calculated. Whether the metric is larger than a threshold is determined. Responsive to determining the metric is larger than the threshold, the video is updated to include the one or more updated subtitles.

Abstract: A system for calibrating a three-dimensional scanning device includes a structured-light scanner capable of performing a structured-light operation, and a processor that performs calibration on a device under calibration (DUC). The structured-light scanner captures a base image by performing the structured-light operation prior to calibration. The structured-light scanner captures a calibration image with respect to corresponding DUC during calibration, and the calibration image is inputted to the processor, which determines transformation mapping from the calibration image to the base image. The determined transformation is then transferred to the DUC during calibration.
