US 2019/0197607 A1 · DIGITAL MODEL OPTIMIZATION RESPONSIVE TO ORIENTATION SENSOR DATA

Abstract

A system server includes a database of two-dimensional images and a processor coupled to a hardware memory with instructions that in response to execution by the processor direct performance of operations. The operations include generating a digital model from the images in the database and communicating a first portion of the digital model as an enhanced view to a user device. The first portion corresponds to a first line of sight orientation of the user device as measured by an orientation sensor. The operations include receiving a signal based on sensor data measured by the orientation sensor. The signal indicates movement of the user device from the first line of sight orientation to a second line of sight orientation. In response, the method includes communicating a second portion of the digital model to the user device that corresponds to the second line of sight orientation of the user device.

Dependent claims

A system server, comprising:

one or more processors;
and
a hardware memory coupled to the one or more processors, the hardware memory having instructions stored thereon that in response to execution by the one or more processors direct performance of operations comprising:
generating an informational overlay that includes an icon relevant to a particular feature of a digital model;
overlaying the informational overlay on the digital model such that the icon is positioned on the particular feature;
communicating, to a user device, a first portion of the digital model that corresponds to a first line of sight orientation of the user device;
and
responsive to a signal indicating movement of the user device from the first line of sight orientation to a second line of sight orientation, communicating a second portion of the digital model to the user device, the second portion corresponding to the second line of sight orientation and including the informational overlay such that the icon is displayed.
