International Classification:

G06T 7/579
G06T 19/00

Abstract:

A handheld user device includes a monocular camera to capture a feed of images of a local scene and a processor to select, from the feed, a keyframe and perform, for a first image from the feed, stereo matching using the first image, the keyframe, and a relative pose based on a pose associated with the first image and a pose associated with the keyframe to generate a sparse disparity map representing disparities between the first image and the keyframe. The processor further is to determine a dense depth map from the disparity map using a bilateral solver algorithm, and process a viewfinder image generated from a second image of the feed with occlusion rendering based on the depth map to incorporate one or more virtual objects into the viewfinder image to generate an AR viewfinder image. Further, the processor is to provide the AR viewfinder image for display.

Abstract:

Aspects of the disclosure generally relate to connecting panoramic images. One or more computing devices may load and display a first panoramic image captured at a first location and receive a selection of an area on the first panoramic image, the area corresponding to where a connection to other panoramic images may be made. The one or more computing devices may identify and display one or more nearby panoramic images which were captured near the first location and receive a selection of one of the one or more nearby panoramic images. The one or more computing devices may display the selected panoramic image and the first panoramic image and align the selected panoramic image with the first panoramic image such that the selected panoramic image is oriented in the same direction as the first panoramic image. The one or more computing devices may connect the selected panoramic image with the first panoramic image.
