Method and apparatus for user interaction for virtual measurement using a depth camera system

Abstract

A method and apparatus provide user interaction for virtual measurement using a depth camera system. According to a possible embodiment, an image of a scene can be displayed on a display of the apparatus. A first frame of the scene can be captured using a first camera on an apparatus. A second frame of the scene can be captured using a second camera on the apparatus. A depth map can be generated based on the first frame and the second frame. A user input can be received that generates at least a human generated segment for measurement on the displayed scene. A measurement overlay can be generated based on the user input and the depth map. The measurement overlay can indicate a measurement in the scene. The measurement overlay can be displayed on a frame of the scene on the display.
