Activity scene detection, display, and enhancement implementations are described. In an example implementation, a method includes displaying an animated character on a display of a computing device, detecting a tangible interface object on a physical activity scene proximate to the computing device, rendering a virtual interface object based on the tangible interface object, determining an interaction routine between the animated character and the virtual interface object, and executing the animation routine to animate on the display, an interaction between the animated character and the virtual interface object.

Activity surface detection, display and enhancement of a virtual scene

Activity surface detection, display, and enhancement implementations are described. In an example implementation, a method determines, using a processor of a computing device, a traceable image and presenting the traceable image in an interface on a display of the computing device; captures, using a video capture device coupled to the computing device, a video stream of a physical activity surface proximate to the computing device; and displays, on the display of the computing device, the captured video stream overlaid with the traceable image in the interface.
