Abstract
Embodiments use holographic projection in augmented reality to visualize a building in 3D and show, as a holographic figure, the position of personnel in the building. In some embodiments, a user can “tap” on a holographic figure to view data on that person, such as skin temperature, room temperature, heart rate, etc.
Claims31
A system for identifying the location of an agent within an interior of a building, the system comprising:
- a set of triangulation reference receivers disposed outside of the building, the set of triangulation reference receivers disposed to receive locator information from a transmitter with the agent;
- a model receiver configured to procure a 3D model of the interior of the building;
- a correlator configured to correlate the 3D model to a reference frame, and to correlate the location of the agent to the reference frame, to produce a correlated location representing the location of the agent within the building;
- a rendering module configured to render a 3D image from the 3D model and correlated location, the 3D image including an avatar representing the agent at the correlated location within the 3D image;
- and
- a 3D display device in communication with the rendering module, the 3D display device configured to receive and display, to a user, the 3D image.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer-executable code which, when executed by a computer processor, causes the computer processor to perform a method of displaying a location of an agent within a building, the computer-executable code comprising computer code for:
- receiving locator information from the agent, the locator information indicating the location of the agent relative to a reference frame;
- receiving a 3D model of the interior of the building;
- correlating the 3D model to the reference frame, to produce a correlated location representing the location of the agent within the building;
- rendering a 3D image from the 3D model and correlated location, the 3D image including an avatar representing the agent at the correlated location within the 3D image;
- and
- displaying, on a 3D display device, the 3D image.
A system for identifying the location of an agent within an interior of a building, the system comprising:
- means for receiving locator information from the agent, the locator information indicating the location of the agent relative to a reference frame;
- means for procuring a 3D model of the interior of the building;
- means for correlating the 3D model to the reference frame, to produce a correlated location representing the location of the agent within the building;
- means for rendering a 3D image from the 3D model and correlated location, the 3D image including an avatar representing the agent at the correlated location within the 3D image;
- and
- means for receiving, and displaying to a user, the 3D image, said means in communication with the rendering module.
A system for identifying the location of an agent within an interior of a building, the system comprising:
- a set of sensors disposed at locations throughout the building, the locations defining a reference frame relative to the building;
- a location receiver configured to obtain locator information from the agent, the locator information indicating the location of the agent relative to the sensors;
- a correlator configured to correlate a 3D model of the interior of the building to the reference frame, and to correlate the location of the agent to the reference frame to produce a correlated location representing the location of the agent within the building;
- a rendering module configured to render a 3D image from the 3D model and correlated location, the 3D image including an avatar representing the agent at the correlated location within the 3D image;
- and
- a 3D display device in communication with the rendering module, the 3D display device configured to receive and display, to a user, the 3D image.
