The invention relates to a method and devices for enabling a user to visualize a virtual model in a real environment. According to the invention, a 2D representation of a 3D virtual object is inserted, in real-time, into the video flows of a camera aimed at a real environment in order to form an enriched video flow. A plurality of cameras generating a plurality of video flows can be simultaneously used to visualize the virtual object in the real environment according to different angles of view. A particular video flow is used to dynamically generate the effects of the real environment on the virtual model. The virtual model can be, for example, a digital copy or virtual enrichments of a real copy. A virtual 2D object, for example the representation of a real person, can be inserted into the enriched video flow.
A method for visualization in real time of a three-dimensional virtual object in a real environment, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium embodied in a computer program product comprising computer readable instructions adapted for carrying out each step of a method for visualization in real time of a three-dimensional virtual object in a real environment, the method comprising:
