SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SIMULATING THREE-DIMENSIONAL VIRTUAL INTERACTIONS FROM TWO-DIMENSIONAL CAMERA IMAGES

摘要

A computer implemented method for incorporating a representation of a participant into a virtual 3D environment substantially in real-time is provided. An image including a participant is captured by a camera. A contour of the participant is automatically determined. Depth data is automatically associated with the participant contour. A first virtual 3D representation of the participant is automatically generated by extruding the participant contour based on the associated depth data. An interaction between the first virtual 3D representation of the participant and a second virtual 3D representation of a second object is displayed.
