DETECTION AND VISUALIZATION OF A FORMATION OF A TANGIBLE INTERFACE OBJECT
Various implementations for detection and visualization of a formation of a tangible interface object include a method that includes capturing a video stream that includes an activity object and a formation of a tangible interface object, identifying the activity object, determining a virtual object based on the identity of the activity object, displaying a graphical user interface embodying a virtual scene and including the virtual object, detecting a formation of the tangible interface object, generating a virtualization based on the formation of the tangible interface object, and updating the graphical user interface to include the visualization.
1 . A method comprising:
capturing, using a video capture device associated with a computing device, a video stream of a physical activity scene proximate to the computing device, the video stream including an activity object, the activity object including a visualization marker and an interaction area, the interaction area including a tangible interface object formed in the interaction area;
identifying, using a processor of the computing device, the activity object based on the visualization marker;
determining, using the processor of the computing device, a virtual object based on the identity of the activity object;
displaying, on a display of the computing device, a graphical user interface embodying a virtual scene, the virtual scene including the virtual object;
detecting, using the processor of the computing device, a formation of the tangible interface object in the interaction area;
generating, using the processor of the computing device, a virtualization based on the formation of the tangible interface object; and
updating, on the display of the computing device, the graphical user interface to include the visualization.
