发明名称 Method for virtualizing an environment
摘要 An apparatus for capturing optical information to virtualize an environment includes a platform, an essentially vertical positioning shaft mounted on the platform, a range finding mechanism for detecting the range of locations in real space in the environment, a camera, structurally connected to the shaft, a mechanism for rotating the camera relative to the platform, a mechanism for translationally moving the camera along the shaft and relative to the platform. The range finding mechanism measures the distance between the camera and an object in the environment, for focusing the camera. The range finding mechanism includes a laser generating device. The apparatus also includes a computer for tracking and controlling the mechanisms for translationally and rotationally moving the camera relative to the platform, for controlling the wheel motor to propel and position the platform in a desired location to achieve a useful camera perspective within the environment, and to store and process and reconcile the image in a data-base.
