Augmenting a first image with a second image
A computer implemented method for augmenting a first image with image data from a second image, the method comprising: receiving (S 02 ) the first image depicting a first scene; capturing (S 04 ) the second image depicting a second scene using an image capturing device; identifying (S 06 ) an object in the second image; receiving (S 08 ) a 3D model from a database, the database comprising a plurality of 3D models, the 3D model corresponding to the identified object of the second image; aligning (S 10 ) the 3D model with the identified object in the second image; extracting (S 12 ) pixel data from the second image using a contour of the 3D model's projection onto the second image; inserting (S 14 ) the extracted pixel data of the second image data into the first image, thereby rendering an augmented image.
1. A method of displaying an item in an extended reality scene, the method comprising:
capturing, using an extended reality device, an image of an object;
displaying an image of a physical room on a display of the extended reality device; and
displaying the image of the object on the display of the extended reality device simultaneously with the image of the physical room, wherein the image of the physical room is manipulated to present an augmented image of the object in the physical room;
wherein the physical room is located remotely from the object and the extended reality device, and the extended reality device is proximate to the object.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein the image of the object has a first scale, the image of the physical room has a second scale, and the first scale is the same as the second scale.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the object comprises:
segmenting the object from the image of the object by extracting pixels corresponding to the object from the image of the object.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein:
displaying the object on the display simultaneously with the image of the physical room comprises inserting the extracted pixels into the image of the physical room thereby rendering an extended reality image.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising moving the object on the display relative to the image of the physical room.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising moving the image of the physical room on the display.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating a 3D scene of the physical room.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein generating the 3D scene of the physical room comprises scanning the physical room.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein scanning the physical room comprises capturing an image of the physical room.
10. The method of claim 7 , further comprising generating the image of the physical room based at least in part on the 3D scene of the physical room.
11. The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating a 3D model of the object.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein generating the 3D model of the object comprises scanning the object.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein scanning the object comprises capturing an image of the object.
14. The method of claim 11 , further comprising generating the image of the object based at least in part on the 3D model of the object.
15. The method of claim 14 , further comprising retrieving the 3D model of the object from a database.
16. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
generating a 3D scene of the physical room, the 3D scene of the physical room having a coordinate space; and
generating a 3D model of the object, the 3D model of the object having a coordinate space;
wherein displaying the object on the display simultaneously with the image of the physical room comprises displaying the object virtually at a determined location in the coordinate space of the physical room.
17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the coordinate space is a 3D coordinate space.
18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the extended reality scene is an augmented reality scene or a virtual reality scene.
19. A system for providing an extended reality scene, the system comprising:
a display;
a camera device;
at least one processor;
at least one memory storing instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the system to:
capture an image of an object using the camera device;
display an image of a physical room on the display; and
display the image of the object on the display simultaneously with the image of the physical room, wherein the image of the physical room is manipulated to present an augmented image of the object in the physical room;
wherein the physical room is located remotely from the object and the system, and the system is proximate to the object.
20. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, storing instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause a system for providing an extended reality scene to:
capture an image of an object using a camera device of the system;
display an image of a physical room on a display of the system; and
display the image of the object on the display simultaneously with the image of the physical room, wherein the image of the physical room is manipulated to present an augmented image of the object in the physical room;
wherein the physical room is located remotely from the object and the system, and the system is proximate to the object.
