Abstract

The mixed reality based 3D sketching device includes a processor; and a memory connected to the processor. The memory stores program commands that are executable by the processor to periodically tracks a marker pen photographed through a camera, to determine whether to remove a third point using a distance between a first point corresponding to a reference point, among points that are sequentially tracked, and a second point at a current time, a preset constant, and an angle between the first point, the second point, and the previously identified third point, to search an object model corresponding to a 3D sketch that has been corrected, after correction is completed depending on the removal of the third point, and to display the searched object model on a screen.

Claims (18)

1. A mixed reality based 3D sketching device, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory connected to the processor,

wherein the memory stores program commands that are executable by the processor to periodically track a marker pen photographed through a camera, to determine whether to remove a third point using a distance between a first point corresponding to a reference point, among points that are sequentially tracked, and a second point at a current time, a preset constant, and an angle between the first point, the second point, and the previously identified third point, to search an object model corresponding to a 3D sketch that has been corrected, after correction is completed depending on the removal of the third point, and to display the searched object model on a screen,

wherein the removal of the third point is determined by the following Equation:

if θ( x,p )<α/dist( o,p ) then Remove( x )  [Equation]

wherein o represents a reference point, p represents a second point, x represents a third point, α represents a preset constant, θ(x, p) represents angle between point x and p, and dist(o,p) represents distance between o and p.

2. The mixed reality based 3D sketching device of claim 1 , wherein the marker pen is a cube-type marker pen configured so that a marker is attached to an entire outer surface of a cylinder structure.

3. The mixed reality based 3D sketching device of claim 1 , wherein the program commands orthogonally project the 3D sketch that has been corrected into a 2D image, extract a characteristic value, compare the extracted characteristic value with a previously stored 3D object model, and search a 3D object model corresponding to the 3D sketch.

4. A mixed reality based 3D sketching method of performing a mixed reality based 3D sketch in a device including a processor and a memory, the method comprising:

periodically tracking a marker pen photographed through a camera;

determining whether to remove a third point using a distance between a first point corresponding to a reference point, among points that are sequentially tracked, and a second point at a current time, a preset constant, and an angle between the first point, the second point, and the previously identified third point,

searching an object model corresponding to a 3D sketch that has been corrected, after correction is completed depending on the removal of the third point, and

displaying the searched object model on a screen,

wherein the removal of the third point is determined by the following Equation:

if θ( x,p )<α/dist( o,p ) then Remove( x )  [Equation]

wherein o represents a reference point, p represents a second point, x represents a third point, α represents a preset constant, θ(x, p) represents angle between point x and p, and dist(o,p) represents distance between o and p.

5. A program stored in a non-transitory recording medium for performing the method of claim 4 .
