Technologies for virtual camera scene generation using physical object sensing

A method for virtual camera frame generation, the method comprising:

• determining, by a computing device, a physical position and a physical orientation of each of one or more physical objects using a position sensor of the computing device to detect a position sensor target of each of the one or more physical objects;
• determining, by the computing device, one or more virtual object positions based on the physical positions of the one or more physical objects, wherein each virtual object position represents a physical object of the one or more physical objects;
• determining, by the computing device, a virtual camera point of view for a virtual camera scene based on the physical positions of the one or more physical objects, wherein determining the virtual camera point of view for the virtual camera scene based on the physical positions of the one or more physical objects comprises (i) identifying a first physical object of the one or more physical objects, and (ii) determining a virtual object position and virtual object orientation of the virtual camera point of view based on the physical position and the physical orientation corresponding to the first physical object;
• and
• rendering, by the computing device, the virtual camera scene based on the one or more virtual object positions using the virtual camera point of view, wherein the virtual camera scene includes one or more virtual objects representing the one or more physical objects.

One or more non-transitory, computer-readable storage media comprising a plurality of instructions that in response to being executed cause a computing device to:

• determine a physical position and a physical orientation of each of one or more physical objects using a position sensor of the computing device to detect a position sensor target of each of the one or more physical objects;
• determine one or more virtual object positions based on the physical positions of the one or more physical objects, wherein each virtual object position represents a physical object of the one or more physical objects;
• determine a virtual camera point of view for a virtual camera scene based on the physical positions of the one or more physical objects, wherein to determine the virtual camera point of view for the virtual camera scene based on the physical positions of the one or more physical objects comprises to (i) identify a first physical object of the one or more physical objects, and (ii) determine a virtual object position and virtual object orientation of the virtual camera point of view based on the physical position and the physical orientation corresponding to the first physical object;
• and
• render the virtual camera scene based on the one or more virtual object positions using the virtual camera point of view, wherein the virtual camera scene includes one or more virtual objects representing the one or more physical objects.
