Identifying a Place of Interest on a Physical Object Through its 3D Model in Augmented Reality View

A computer program product comprising instructions which, when the program is executed by the computational device, cause the computational device to carry out the steps of a method for identifying at least one place of interest on a physical object within a physical environment using augmented reality and a 3D model of the physical object, the method comprising:

• aligning, in an augmented reality view, the 3D model with the physical object within the physical environment;
• determining motion data by tracking at least one gesture of user related to the physical object;
• and
• identifying the at least one place of interest by determining at least one intersection point of said at least one gesture and the physical object;
• wherein said at least one intersection point is determined by using at least one virtual proximity sensor comprised by the 3D model in relation to the motion data.
