Abstract
Augmented reality (AR) telepresence systems and methods are disclosed for obtaining a 3D model of a physical location from a 3D-capture system comprising one or more 3D depth sensors disposed throughout the physical location, generating a truncated 3D model of the physical location, the truncated 3D model corresponding to the intersection of the generated 3D model and a field of view of a user terminal camera at the physical location, and transmitting the truncated 3D model to a remote location.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- obtaining a 3D model of a physical location from a 3D-capture system comprising one or more 3D depth sensors disposed throughout the physical location;
- generating a truncated 3D model of the physical location, the truncated 3D model corresponding to the intersection of the generated 3D model and a field of view of a user terminal camera at the physical location;
- and
- transmitting the truncated 3D model to a remote location.
A system comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium for carrying one or more instructions, wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform the steps of:
- obtaining a 3D model of a physical location from a 3D-capture system comprising one or more 3D depth sensors disposed throughout the physical location;
- generating a truncated 3D model of the physical location, the truncated 3D model corresponding to the intersection of the generated 3D model and a field of view of a user terminal camera at the physical location;
- and
- transmitting the truncated 3D model to a remote location.
