Claims (8)

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
