High Frame Rate Light Beam Collision Detection

Abstract: a system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a memory storing a software code, a video camera communicatively coupled to the computing platform, and a user device communicatively coupled to the computing platform, the user device including a position/location (p/l) detection unit. the hardware processor is configured to execute the software code to obtain a three-dimensional (3d) map of a physical venue, identify one or more object representations within the physical venue, and detect, using the video camera, a collision of a light beam emitted by the user device with one of the one or more object representations. the hardware processor is further configured to execute the software code to identify, based on the 3d map and an orientation data sampled from the p/l detection unit, the user device having emitted the light beam colliding with the one of the one or more object representations.
