Abstract
A method for enabling augmented reality interactions with a globe comprises steps of receiving an image of a portion of an outer shell of the globe, from an image capturing device of a computing device, identifying a geographical region from the image, generating a plurality of graphical elements related to the geographical region and displaying the plurality of graphical elements on a display device of the computing device.
Claims16
A globe, comprising:
- an outer shell;
- a rotation mechanism provided with an actuator, a microphone and a control module;
- wherein the microphone is configured to receive an audio signal;
- wherein the control module is configured to transmit an actuation signal to the actuator, in response to the microphone receiving the audio signal;
- and
- wherein the actuator is configured to actuate on receiving the actuation signal and cause the outer shell to rotate, using the rotation mechanism.
A method for enabling augmented reality interactions with a globe comprising the steps of:
- receiving an image of a portion of an outer shell of the globe, from an image capturing device of a computing device;
- identifying a geographical region from the image;
- generating a plurality of graphical elements related to the geographical region;
- and
- displaying the plurality of graphical elements on a display device of the computing device.
A system for enabling augmented reality interactions with a globe comprising:
- an imaging module;
- an image processing module;
