ALIGNING REPRESENTATIONS OF 3D SPACE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18026472 titled 'ALIGNING REPRESENTATIONS OF 3D SPACE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for aligning representations of a 3D space captured by different devices.

  • Obtaining geometric restrictions for two different representations of the same physical space captured by two different devices.
  • Comparing the geometric restrictions and determining if the difference exceeds a threshold.
  • Identifying which set of geometric restrictions is more restrictive and which is less restrictive.
  • Triggering a determination of the representation based on the least restrictive set of geometric restrictions, using the most restrictive set as a reference.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for aligning representations of a 3D space is provided, including: obtaining a first set of geometric restrictions for a first representation corresponding to capturing restrictions of a first capturing device, the first representation forming part of a map for positioning of capturing devices; obtaining a second set of geometric restrictions corresponding to capturing restrictions of a second capturing device for providing a second representation of a 3D physical space; determining that a difference between the first set of geometric restrictions and the second set of geometric restrictions exceeds a threshold; determining which one of the first set of geometric restrictions and the second set of geometric restrictions is most restrictive and which one is least restrictive; and triggering a restrictive determination of the representation that is based on the least restrictive set of geometric restrictions, the determination being based on the most restrictive set of geometric restrictions.
