Abstract:
Method, computer program product, and apparatus for providing interactions of tangible and augmented reality objects are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of controlling a real object using a device having a camera comprises receiving a selection of at least one object, tracking the at least one object in a plurality of images captured by the camera, and causing control signals to be transmitted from the device to the real object via a machine interface based at least in part on the tracking.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses for maintaining continuity of augmentations are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for use with an augmented reality enabled device (ARD) comprises tracking a plurality of objects and a background based at least in part on visual information derived from an image, maintaining states of the plurality of objects based at least in part on information other than the visual information, and providing data for rendering augmentation in response to the states of the plurality of objects.

Abstract:
Method, computer program product, and apparatus for providing interactions of tangible and augmented reality objects are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for use with an augmented reality enabled device (ARD) comprises performing 3-dimensional tracking of one or more objects based at least in part on captured images of the one or more objects, detecting a state change of at least one object of the one or more objects based at least in part on the captured images, and causing an augmentation to be rendered in response to the state change of the at least one object, where a type of the augmentation is based at least in part on the state change of the at least one object.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, and systems are provided to transition 3D space information detected in an Augmented Reality (AR) view of a mobile device to screen aligned information on the mobile device. In at least one implementation, a method includes determining augmentation information associated with an object of interest, including a Modelview (M1) matrix and a Projection (P1) matrix, displaying the augmentation information on top of a video image of the object of interest using the M1 and P1 matrices, generating a second Modelview (M2) matrix and a second Projection (P2) matrix, such that the matrices M2 and P2 represent the screen aligned final position of the augmentation information, and displaying the augmentation information using the M2 and P2 matrices.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for controlling an augmented reality interface are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for use with an augmented reality enabled device (ARD) comprises receiving image data for tracking a plurality of objects, identifying an object to be selected from the plurality of objects, determining whether the object has been selected based at least in part on a set of selection criteria, and causing an augmentation to be rendered with the object if it is determined that the object has been selected.

Abstract:
Methods and devices provide a user interface that provides visual cues when a document pan or scroll has reached an end or boundary by distorting the document image in response to further user inputs. The image distortion functionality may include shrinking, stretching, accordion expansion, or bouncing of a document image. The degree of image distortion may be proportional to the distance that a user input would have the document move beyond the encountered boundary. When a boundary of a document image is reached during a rapid pan or scroll, a bouncing image distortion may be applied to the document image to inform the user that the document reached a boundary during the movement.
