4D REAL-WORLD BROWSING WITH CAPABILITY TO RECOGNIZE AND ACCESS OBJECTS IN REAL-TIME

摘要

3D technologies have facilitated tremendous growth in terms of allowing real-world browsing using compositions of satellite or aerial images or static 3D models of real-world objects. Prior art approaches, however, are limited with respect to real-time capabilities. This invention responds to the noted deficiencies by providing a novel method, apparatus, and system for providing 4D (e.g., 3D + real-time) based approaches to allow users to view images or models of objects in real-time, offering users an opportunity to engage, access and interact with the objects depicted in real-time. The interaction may entail providing a user instruction as to how to complete a given task responsive to an identified problem. One or more objects may connect with a mobile/remote terminal based on application requirements and the like to facilitate such interaction and/or instruction.
