Abstract
A method of providing an interactive personal mobility system, performed by one or more processors, comprises determining an initial pose by visual-inertial odometry performed on images and inertial measurement unit (IMU) data generated by a wearable augmented reality device. Sensor data transmitted from a personal mobility system is received, and sensor fusion is performed on the data received from the personal mobility system to provide an updated pose. Augmented reality effects are displayed on the wearable augmented reality device based on the updated pose.
Claims15
A method of providing an interactive personal mobility system, performed by one or more processors, comprising:
- determining an initial pose by visual-inertial odometry performed on images and inertial measurement unit (IMU) data generated by a wearable augmented reality device;
- receiving linear motion sensor data transmitted from a personal mobility system;
- performing sensor fusion on the linear motion sensor data received from the personal mobility system and data for the initial pose thereby to generate an updated pose;
- determining a relative position and orientation of the personal mobility system and the wearable augmented reality device based in part on data transmitted from the personal mobility system;
- displaying a particular augmented reality effect on the wearable augmented reality device based on the updated pose and the relative position and orientation of the personal mobility system and the wearable augmented reality device, the display of the particular augmented reality effect being fixed relative to a frame of reference of the personal mobility system;
- detecting user interaction with the particular augmented reality effect;
- and
- in response to detecting the user interaction, altering a maximum speed or an available power of the personal mobility system.
A computing apparatus for enabling interactive personal mobility systems comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, configure the apparatus to perform operations comprising:
- determining an initial pose by visual-inertial odometry performed on images and inertial measurement unit (IMU) data generated by a wearable augmented reality device;
- receiving linear motion sensor data transmitted from a personal mobility system;
- performing sensor fusion on the linear motion sensor data received from the personal mobility system and data for the initial pose thereby to generate an updated pose;
- determining a relative position and orientation of the personal mobility system and the wearable augmented reality device based in part on data transmitted from the personal mobility system;
- displaying a particular augmented reality effect on the wearable augmented reality device based on the updated pose and the relative position and orientation of the personal mobility system and the wearable augmented reality device, the display of the particular augmented reality effect being fixed relative to a frame of reference of the personal mobility system;
- detecting user interaction with the particular augmented reality effect;
- and
- in response to detecting the user interaction, altering a maximum speed or an available power of the personal mobility system.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the computer-readable storage medium including instructions that when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform operations comprising:
