Abstract
A method of displaying virtual information in a view of a real environment comprising the following steps: providing the system relative to at least one part of the real environment and providing accuracy information of the current pose, providing multiple pieces of virtual information, and assigning a respective one of the pieces of virtual information to one of different parameters indicative of different pose accuracy information, and displaying at least one of the pieces of virtual information in the view of the real environment according to the accuracy information of the current pose in relation to the assigned parameter.
Claims20
A method of displaying virtual information in a view of a real environment, comprising:
- determining a location of a system that displays virtual information in a real environment;
- obtaining, based on the location, a plurality of points of interest in the real environment, wherein each of the plurality of points of interests are associated with an uncertainty parameter indicating an accuracy of a location of a corresponding point of interest;
- determining a distance for each of the plurality of points of interest from the location;
- and
- determining, for each of the plurality of points of interest, a display method based on a combination of a corresponding uncertainty parameter and a corresponding distance.
A non-transitory computer readable medium for displaying virtual information in a view of a real environment, comprising computer readable code executable by one or more processors to:
- determine a location of a system that displays virtual information in a real environment;
- obtain, based on the location, a plurality of points of interest in the real environment, wherein each of the plurality of points of interests are associated with an uncertainty parameter indicating an accuracy of a location of a corresponding point of interest;
- determine a distance for each of the plurality of points of interest from the location;
- and
- determine, for each of the plurality of points of interest, a display method based on a combination of a corresponding uncertainty parameter and a corresponding distance.
A system for displaying virtual information in a view of a real environment, comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- one or more computer readable media comprising computer readable code executable by the one or more processors to:
- determine a location of a system that displays virtual information in a real environment;
- obtain, based on the location, a plurality of points of interest in the real environment, wherein each of the plurality of points of interests are associated with an uncertainty
- parameter indicating an accuracy of a location of a corresponding point of interest;
- determine a distance for each of the plurality of points of interest from the location;
- and
- determine, for each of the plurality of points of interest, a display method based on a combination of a corresponding uncertainty parameter and a corresponding distance.
