Abstract:
Techniques for augmenting a reality captured by an image capture device are disclosed. In one example, a system includes an image capture device that generates a two-dimensional frame at a local pose. The system further includes a computation engine executing on one or more processors that queries, based on an estimated pose prior, a reference database of three-dimensional mapping information to obtain an estimated view of the three-dimensional mapping information at the estimated pose prior. The computation engine processes the estimated view at the estimated pose prior to generate semantically segmented sub-views of the estimated view. The computation engine correlates, based on at least one of the semantically segmented sub-views of the estimated view, the estimated view to the two-dimensional frame. Based on the correlation, the computation engine generates and outputs data for augmenting a reality represented in at least one frame captured by the image capture device.
Abstract:
A multi-sensor, multi-modal data collection, analysis, recognition, and visualization platform can be embodied in a navigation capable vehicle. The platform provides an automated tool that can integrate multi-modal sensor data including two-dimensional image data, three-dimensional image data, and motion, location, or orientation data, and create a visual representation of the integrated sensor data, in a live operational environment. An illustrative platform architecture incorporates modular domain-specific business analytics “plug ins” to provide real-time annotation of the visual representation with domain-specific markups.
