Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for the generation and interactive display of three-dimensional (3D) building models, for the determination and simulation of risk associated with the underlying buildings, for the prediction of changes to the underlying buildings associated with the risk, for the generation and display of updated 3D building models factoring in the risk or predicted changes, and for the collection and display of relevant contextual information associated with the underlying building while presenting a 3D building model. The 3D building model can be displayed in an augmented reality (AR) view, and a user can interact with the 3D building model via controls present in the AR view and/or by moving within the real-world location in which the user is present.

Claims21

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method comprising:

causing a user interface that displays a view of a location at which a user is present to depict a prompt for the user to select one of a plurality of properties visually depicted in the prompt, wherein the depiction of the prompt is in a first portion of the user interface and the display of the view of the location at which the user is present is in a second portion of the user interface;
in response to a selection of a first property in the plurality of properties, obtaining a three-dimensional (3D) model of a building on the first property, wherein the 3D model of the building comprises a plurality of points in 3D space that are connected by one or more shapes to represent the building;
causing the user interface to display a first view of the 3D model of the building at least partially overlaid a display of the view of the location at which the user is present;
and
in response to the user moving at the location at which the user is present, causing the user interface to display a second view of the 3D model of the building that is different than the first view overlaid a display of a second view of the location that is visible in response to the user movement and that depicts a state of the location at a time of the user movement.

Non-transitory computer storage media storing instructions that when executed by one or more hardware processors of an augmented reality (AR) modeling system, cause the AR modeling system to perform operations comprising:

causing a user interface that displays a view of a location at which a user is present to depict a prompt for the user to select one of a plurality of properties visually depicted in the prompt, wherein the depiction of the prompt is in a first portion of the user interface and the display of the view of the location at which the user is present is in a second portion of the user interface;
in response to a selection of a first property in the plurality of properties, obtaining a three-dimensional (3D) model of a building on the first property, wherein the 3D model of the building comprises a plurality of points in 3D space that are connected by one or more shapes to represent the building;
causing the user interface to display a first view of the 3D model of the building at least partially overlaid a display of the view of the location at which the user is present;
and
in response to the user moving at the location at which the user is present, causing the user interface to display a second view of the 3D model of the building that is different than the first view overlaid a display of a second view of the location that is visible in response to the user movement and that depicts a state of the location at a time of the user movement.

2 more elements

An augmented reality (AR) modeling system comprising:

computer storage media storing instructions;
and
one or more hardware processors configured to execute the instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the one or more hardware processors to perform operations comprising:
causing a user interface that displays a view of a location at which a user is present to depict a prompt for the user to select one of a plurality of properties visually depicted in the prompt, wherein the depiction of the prompt is in a first portion of the user interface and the display of the view of the location at which the user is present is in a second portion of the user interface;
in response to a selection of a first property in the plurality of properties, obtaining a three-dimensional (3D) model of a building on the first property, wherein the 3D model of the building comprises a plurality of points in 3D space that are connected by one or more shapes to represent the building;
causing the user interface to display a first view of the 3D model of the building at least partially overlaid a display of the view of the location at which the user is present;
and
in response to the user moving at the location at which the user is present, causing the user interface to display a second view of the 3D model of the building that is different than the first view overlaid a display of a second view of the location that is visible in response to the user movement and that depicts a state of the location at a time of the user movement.
