Abstract:
A computer system displays a representation of a field of view of one or more cameras that is updated with changes in the field of view. In response to a request to add an annotation, the representation of the field of view of the camera(s) is replaced with a still image of the field of view of the camera(s). An annotation is received on a portion of the still image that corresponds to a portion of a physical environment captured in the still image. The still image is replaced with the representation of the field of view of the camera(s). An indication of a current spatial relationship of the camera(s) relative to the portion of the physical environment is displayed or not displayed based on a determination of whether the portion of the physical environment captured in the still image is currently within the field of view of the camera(s).
