Estimating the term…
A method to efficiently update and manage outputs of real time or offline 3D reconstruction and scanning in a mobile device having limited resource and connection to the Internet is provided. The method makes available to a wide variety of mobile XR applications fresh, accurate and comprehensive 3D reconstruction data, in either single user applications or multi-user applications sharing and updating the same 3D reconstruction data. The method includes a block-based 3D data representation that allows local update and maintains neighbor consistency at the same time, and a multi-layer caching mechanism that retrieves, prefetches, and stores 3D data efficiently for XR applications.
A portable electronic system comprising:
At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium encoded with a plurality of computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, perform a method for providing a 3D representation of a physical world, the method comprising:
A method of operating an electronic system to provide information about objects in a physical world, wherein the electronic system comprises active memory and cache memory, the electronic system represents a 3D reconstruction of the physical world as a plurality of blocks, the electronic system comprises a portable, pointable component, based on actions of a user, at a portion of the physical world, and the portable, pointable component comprises at least one sensor, the method comprising:
