Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer programs for generating an interactive space, viewable through at least a first and a second handheld devices, are presented. The method includes an operation for taking an image with a camera in the first device. In addition, the method includes an operation for determining a relative position of the second device with reference to the first device, based on image analysis of the taken image to identify a geometry of the second device. Furthermore, the method includes operations for identifying a reference point in a three-dimensional (3D) space based on the relative position, and for generating views of an interactive scene in corresponding displays of the first device and the second device. The interactive scene is tied to the reference point and includes virtual objects, and each view shows all or part of the interactive scene as observed from a current location of the corresponding device.
