Diminished Reality

摘要

A computer tool generates user-defined diminished reality images of a subject environment from source images. The diminished reality images display less real-world objects in the subject environment than that displayed in the source images. A 3D model of the subject environment in diminished reality is formed from the diminished reality images. The 3D model supports augmented reality user interaction with views of the subject environment diminished in reality and tidied/decluttered of user-selected objects.

主权项

1. A computer method of displaying a subject environment comprising:
digitally generating a set of one or more images that form a first view depicting a subject environment in an origination state instead of in a current state, such that the first view is a diminished reality of the subject environment; and enabling computer-based user interaction with the set of images forming the first view in a manner that generates a second view, the second view being an augmented reality representation of the subject environment.
