Embodiment Construction

[0075] Embodiments described below are intended to provide an augmented reality experience to a user using a handheld device, such as a mobile phone, that incorporates an electronic processor, camera, and display. Specifically, from video clips picture like a live camera view displayed in the display of a handheld device, or in some cases, a pre-recorded camera view used as a background to create the illusion of the subject of the video (i.e. virtual moving picture image) appears in the camera's viewfinder in real time.

[0076] In this context, the term "real world" picture like from reality picture Like, for example, physical real-world situations using electronic photo-taking techniques such as video recording.

[0077] In order to achieve the above goals, the device must have various processes, including obtaining environmental information from the camera view, obtaining approximate virtual picture image, positioning the virtual picture like, optionally anchoring the ...

Abstract

A live broadcast is depicted as (400), in this case a golf tournament. The broadcast (400) is depicted on a television screen (410) of a user (420), substantially in real time. In a television studio represented by (430), which may be close to the site of the live broadcast, or may be remote therefrom, a commentator or pundit (440) records segments of video analysis. The video image is sent to a server (450). The video clip of the commentator (440) is then downloadable by the user (420) using a device such as a mobile phone or tablet (460). The user can then view the additional content of the video segment of the commentator (440) on the device (460). Using the techniques of positioning and anchoring as described herein, the user (420) can enjoy the video (segment 440) as though the commentator were present in the room, by viewing the room through a camera of the device (460).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device and method for providing augmented reality experience, in particular to a device and method for providing augmented reality experience with a handheld device with a camera. Background technique [0002] Augmented reality, which uses computer-generated input to enhance viewing of real-world environments, is increasingly being implemented on a variety of platforms, including televisions, heads-up displays, and to some extent handheld devices such as cell phones and tablets . [0003] Small, dedicated downloadable programs, colloquially known as "apps," enhance the use of handheld devices, such as cell phones, as cameras. Many applications include computer-generated visualizations that can be combined with "live view" through the camera to provide users with some level of augmented reality improvement picture like or entertainment. However, incorporating video footage into the camera's live view has proven diff...
