Abstract
A method for simulating optical lenses in augmented reality using a mobile apparatus including at least an input peripheral and a display peripheral, the method includes at least, a capture phase a data acquisition phase while the user is looking at an object in the environment, and a simulation phase performed by at least a processing unit allowing a virtual lens to be produced and superposed on at least an image of a user's environment.
Claims9
A method for simulating optical lenses in augmented reality using a mobile apparatus including at least one input peripheral and one display peripheral, said method comprising:
- one capture phase including at least the following step:
- a1) capturing at least one image of a user's environment using at least one image capture element;
- one data acquisition phase including at least the following step:
- b1) determining the distance between the mobile apparatus and at least one object in the environment using at least one measurement unit;
- and one simulation phase (P3) implemented by at least one processing unit of the mobile apparatus, including at least the following step:
- c1) applying a virtual lens reproducing the optical effect of an actual determined optical-correction lens, on said at least one image of the environment, depending on the data acquired during the data acquisition phase and displaying the simulation on a display peripheral;
- wherein during step c1, said virtual lens is selected from a pre-existing database of lenses with different modifiable mappings or is created with a custom mapping.
