Abstract
A method and apparatus for using augmented reality to assist in capturing data from a document are described. The method may include capturing, with a camera of a mobile device, an image of a first region of a document. The method may also include determining, by a processor of the mobile device, a dimension of the first region relative to the document. The method may also include rendering, in a display of the mobile device, an image of the document in an augmented reality scene with a first augmented reality overlay rendered over the first region of the image of the document and a second augmented reality overlay rendered over a second region of the document, the first region and the second region being different regions of the document.
Claims17
A computer-implemented method for using augmented reality to assist in capturing data from a document, the method comprising:
- capturing, with a camera of a mobile device, an image of a first region of a document;
- determining, by a processor of the mobile device, dimensions of the first region relative to the document;
- and
- rendering, in a display of the mobile device based on the determined dimensions of the first region, an image of the document in an augmented reality scene with a first augmented reality overlay rendered over the first region of the image of the document and a second augmented reality overlay rendered over a second region of the document, the first region and the second region being different regions of the document, wherein the first augmented reality overlay has a first visual appearance and the second augmented reality has a second visual appearance different from the first visual appearance, and wherein one or more augmented reality overlays having the first visual appearance are used to overlay one or more regions of the document associated with captured regions of the document, and wherein one or more augmented reality overlays having the second visual appearance are used to overlay one or more regions of the document associated with regions of the document not yet captured.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a computer processing system, cause the computer processing system to perform operations for using augmented reality to assist in capturing data from a document, the operations comprising:
- capturing, with a camera of a mobile device, an image of a first region of a document;
- determining, by a processor of the mobile device, dimensions of the first region relative to the document;
- and
- rendering, in a display of the mobile device based on the determined dimensions of the first region, an image of the document in an augmented reality scene with a first augmented reality overlay rendered over the first region of the image of the document and a second augmented reality overlay rendered over a second region of the document, the first region and the second region being different regions of the document, wherein the first augmented reality overlay has a first visual appearance and the second augmented reality has a second visual appearance different from the first visual appearance, and wherein one or more augmented reality overlays having the first visual appearance are used to overlay one or more regions of the document associated with captured regions of the document, and wherein one or more augmented reality overlays having the second visual appearance are used to overlay one or more regions of the document associated with regions of the document not yet captured.
A mobile device, comprising:
- a camera to capture an image of a first region of a document;
- a memory to store the image of the first region of the document;
- a processor configured to:
- determine dimensions of the first region relative to the document, and
- render, in a display of the mobile device based on the determined dimensions of the first region, an image of the document in an augmented reality scene with a first augmented reality overlay rendered over the first region of the image of the document and a second augmented reality overlay rendered over a second region of the document, the first region and the second region being different regions of the document, wherein the first augmented reality overlay has a first visual appearance and the second augmented reality has a second visual appearance different from the first visual appearance, and wherein one or more augmented reality overlays having the first visual appearance are used to overlay one or more regions of the document associated with captured regions of the document, and wherein one or more augmented reality overlays having the second visual appearance are used to overlay one or more regions of the document associated with regions of the document not yet captured.
