[0029] Example 1

[0030] Figure 1 The flowchart illustrates an AR tracking method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to situations where AR tracking of objects is performed using an AR device. The method can be executed by an AR tracking device, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software and can be configured within the AR device. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0031] S110: The inertial measurement unit (IMU) built into the AR device acquires the attitude of the first object in the target scene in real time.

[0032] The AR device can be a head-mounted AR device such as AR glasses or an AR helmet, or it can be an electronic device with AR functionality. The AR device includes an inertial measurement unit (IMU). In this embodiment of the invention, in response to an AR tracking event being triggered, the AR device uses its built-in IMU to acquire the pose of a first object in the target scene in real time. The target scene can be any scene that the AR device can observe.

[0033] S120. When it is determined that an object in the target scene is in an abnormal state based on the posture of the first object, the RGB image sequence of the target scene is obtained.

[0034] In this embodiment of the invention, since the inertial measurement unit (IMU) may have certain measurement deviations, the first object posture obtained by the IMU may be inaccurate. The system determines whether the object in the target scene is in an abnormal state based on the first object posture; if so, it acquires an RGB image sequence of the target scene in real time. For example, the first object posture can be analyzed based on a pre-set state determination algorithm to determine whether the object in the target scene is in an abnormal state. It should be noted that this embodiment of the invention does not limit the state determination algorithm. An abnormal state may include a tracking loss state or an incorrect posture state. The AR device has a built-in camera; when it is determined that the object in the target scene is in a tracking loss state or an incorrect posture state based on the first object posture, the built-in camera captures an RGB image sequence of the target scene in real time.

[0035] Optionally, the abnormal state includes an incorrect pose state; determining that an object in the target scene is in an abnormal state based on the first object pose includes: determining the volume offset of the object in the target scene based on the current first object pose and the previous first object pose; when the volume offset is greater than a preset threshold, determining that the object in the target scene is in an incorrect pose state. Specifically, the first object pose includes the vertices of a 3D bounding box, and a 3D volume can be constructed based on the vertices of the 3D bounding box. Since the first object pose changes in displacement in each frame, the volume offset of the object can be determined by comparing the current first object pose with the previous first object pose. Specifically, a first volume corresponding to the current first object pose and a second volume corresponding to the previous first object pose are determined respectively, and the difference between the first volume and the second volume is taken as the volume offset of the object. When the volume offset is greater than a preset threshold, it can be determined that the object in the target scene is in an incorrect pose state; when the volume offset is less than a preset threshold, it can be determined that the object in the target scene is in a correct pose state.

[0036] Optionally, the abnormal state includes a tracking loss state; determining that an object in the target scene is in an abnormal state based on the first object's pose includes: when the object in the target scene is determined to be in an incorrect pose state based on the first object's pose, acquiring the pose data of the AR device in real time; when the object in the target scene is determined to be in an incorrect pose state based on the pose data, determining that the object in the target scene is in a tracking loss state. Specifically, when the object in the target scene is determined to be in an incorrect pose state based on the first object's pose, acquiring the pose data of the AR device in real time, calculating the pose offset of the AR device based on the current pose data and the previous pose data, determining that the object in the target scene is in an incorrect pose state when the pose offset is greater than a preset pose threshold, and determining that the object in the target scene is in a correct pose state when the pose offset is less than the preset pose threshold. When both the first object's pose and the AR device's pose data determine that the object in the target scene is in an incorrect pose state, it can be further determined that the object in the target scene is in a tracking loss state.

[0037] S130. The RGB image sequence is sent to the server so that the server can determine the pose of the second object in the target scene based on the RGB image sequence.

[0038] In this embodiment of the invention, the AR device sends an RGB image sequence to a server. When the server receives the RGB image sequence from the AR device, it analyzes the RGB image sequence to determine the pose of a second object in the target scene. Optionally, sending the RGB image sequence to the server so that the server can determine the pose of the second object in the target scene based on the RGB image sequence includes: sending the RGB image sequence to the server so that the server inputs the RGB image sequence into a pre-trained object pose estimation model, and determines the pose of the second object in the target scene based on the output of the object pose estimation model. The object pose estimation model is a pose estimation model trained based on a pre-defined machine learning model. The server sends the received RGB image sequence to the object pose estimation model so that the object pose estimation model analyzes the RGB image sequence and determines the pose of the second object in the target scene based on the output of the object pose estimation model. For example, the object pose estimation model can be a 6DoF object pose estimation model. It is understood that the first object pose model is a coarsely estimated object pose by the AR device through an inertial measurement unit (IMU), and the second object pose model is a precise object pose determined based on the RGB image sequence.

[0039] S140. Receive the second object pose sent by the server, and perform model rendering on the object based on the second object pose to generate a corresponding first target model, so as to perform AR tracking on the object based on the first target model.

[0040] In this embodiment of the invention, the AR device receives a second object pose sent by the server, and performs model rendering on the objects in the target scene based on the second object pose to generate a corresponding first target model. A pre-defined model rendering method can be used to render the model based on the second object pose to generate the first target model. Then, AR technology is used to perform AR tracking on the objects in the target scene based on the first target model.

[0041] Optionally, it also includes: when it is determined that the object in the target scene is in the correct posture state based on the first object posture, performing model rendering on the object based on the first object posture to generate a corresponding second target model, and then performing AR tracking on the object based on the second target model. The advantage of this setup is that it effectively ensures the timeliness of AR tracking while maintaining its accuracy. Specifically, when it is determined that the object in the target scene is in the correct posture state based on the first object posture, it means that the first object posture obtained by the inertial measurement unit (IMU) is relatively accurate. There is no need to acquire RGB image sequences and send them to the server for analysis to re-determine the object posture. Model rendering can be performed directly based on the first object posture to generate the second target model, and AR tracking of the object in the target scene can be performed using AR technology based on the second target model.

[0042] The AR tracking method of this invention includes: acquiring the pose of a first object in a target scene in real time using an inertial measurement unit (IMU) built into the AR device; when it is determined that an object in the target scene is in an abnormal state based on the first object pose, acquiring an RGB image sequence of the target scene; sending the RGB image sequence to a server so that the server determines the pose of a second object in the target scene based on the RGB image sequence; receiving the second object pose sent by the server, and performing model rendering on the object based on the second object pose to generate a corresponding first target model, and performing AR tracking on the object based on the first target model. Through the technical solution provided by this invention, for AR devices with high frame rate requirements and low computational performance, the accuracy of AR tracking can be effectively guaranteed without consuming a large amount of GPU resources.

[0045] S210: The inertial measurement unit (IMU) built into the AR device acquires the attitude of the first object in the target scene in real time.

[0046] S220. Determine whether the object in the target scene is in a tracking loss state or an incorrect posture state based on the first object's posture. If so, execute S230; otherwise, execute S250.

[0047] S230. Obtain the RGB image sequence of the target scene and send the RGB image sequence to the server so that the server can determine the pose of the second object in the target scene based on the RGB image sequence.

[0048] S240. Receive the second object pose sent by the server, and perform model rendering on the object based on the second object pose to generate a corresponding first target model, so as to perform AR tracking on the object based on the first target model.

[0049] S250. Based on the pose of the first object, perform model rendering on the object to generate a corresponding second target model, and perform AR tracking on the object based on the second target model.

[0050] The AR tracking method provided in this invention can effectively ensure the accuracy of AR tracking for AR devices with high frame rate requirements and low computing performance without consuming a large amount of GPU resources.

[0053] The first object posture determination module 310 is used to obtain the posture of the first object in the target scene in real time through the inertial measurement unit (IMU) built into the AR device.

[0054] The image sequence acquisition module 320 is used to acquire an RGB image sequence of the target scene when it is determined that an object in the target scene is in an abnormal state based on the first object pose.

[0055] The second object pose determination module 330 is used to send the RGB image sequence to the server so that the server can determine the pose of the second object in the target scene based on the RGB image sequence.

[0059] Optionally, the second object pose determination module is used for:

[0060] The RGB image sequence is sent to the server so that the server inputs the RGB image sequence into a pre-trained object pose estimation model and determines the pose of the second object in the target scene based on the output of the object pose estimation model.

The AR tracking module is used to receive the second object pose sent by the server, and to perform model rendering on the object based on the second object pose to generate a corresponding first target model, so as to perform AR tracking on the object based on the first target model; The abnormal state includes an incorrect posture state; The image sequence acquisition module is used for: The volume offset of the object in the target scene is determined based on the current first object pose and the previous first object pose; When the volume offset is greater than a preset threshold, it is determined that the object in the target scene is in an incorrect posture state; The abnormal states include tracking loss states; The image sequence acquisition module is used for: When it is determined that an object in the target scene is in an incorrect posture state based on the first object's posture, the AR device's pose data is acquired in real time. When it is determined from the pose data that an object in the target scene is in an incorrect pose state, it is determined that the object in the target scene is in a tracking loss state. The determination that an object in the target scene is in an incorrect pose state based on the pose data includes: The pose offset of the AR device is calculated based on the current pose data and the previous pose data. When the pose offset is greater than a preset pose threshold, it is determined that the object in the target scene is in an incorrect pose state.
