A method is provided for providing target object information to a mobile interface device user in a dynamic structural environment. The method includes receiving from the mobile interface device a request for target object information associated with a target object in the dynamic structural environment. A pose of the mobile interface device relative to the target object is determined accounting for spatial differences in the environment coordinate system resulting from changes in the dynamic structure. The method also includes assembling AR target object information for transmission to and display on the mobile interface device and transmitting the AR target object information to the mobile interface device for display in conjunction with a real-time view of the target object.

System and method for use of augmented reality in outfitting a dynamic structural space

System and method for augmented reality discrepancy determination and reporting

A method for providing electrical system status information to a mobile device user is presented. The method comprises receiving a request for target area electrical system status information from a mobile device, determining the pose of the mobile interface device relative to the target area, obtaining target area electrical system status information for a target electrical system at least partially disposed within the target area, and assembling AR electrical system status information for transmission to and display on the mobile interface device. The AR electrical system status information is assembled using the target area electrical system status information and is configured for viewing in conjunction with a real-time view of the target area captured by the mobile interface device. The AR electrical system status information is then transmitted to the mobile interface device.

System and method for augmented reality display of electrical system information

An asset information management system is provided for obtaining and storing information on assets disposed within a structural environment. The system comprises at least one mobile interface device for capturing information about a target object in the structural environment. An information management operating system operates on a central processor in communication with the mobile interface device and a local positioning system. The domain coordinate management system comprises one or more computers configured for establishing spatial addresses for spaces and points within the structural environment. The asset log comprises one or more data storage modules configured for storing information associated with objects disposed within the structural environment. The spatial indexing engine is configured for assigning a spatial address to the target object and for storing information associated with the target object in the asset log.

System and method for determining and maintaining object location and status

A method for providing environment information to a mobile device user is presented. The method comprises receiving a request for target environment information from a mobile device, determining the pose of the mobile interface device relative to the target environment, and obtaining target environment data for one or more measurable environment parameters (e.g., radiation level). The target environment data is used to assemble augmented reality information configured for viewing in conjunction with a real-time view of the target environment captured by the mobile interface device. The target augmented reality information is then transmitted to the mobile device for display to the user.

System and method for augmented reality display of dynamic environment information

A method for providing information associated with a lift process to a mobile device user is presented. The method comprises receiving a request for lift environment information from a mobile device, determining a pose of the mobile interface device relative to a lift process target area, and obtaining lift environment information for at least a portion of the lift process target area. The lift environment information is used to assemble AR lift information for transmission to and display on the mobile interface device. The AR lift information is configured for viewing in conjunction with a real-time view of the lift process target area captured by the mobile interface device. The AR lift information is then transmitted to the mobile interface device for display.

System and method for augmented reality display of hoisting and rigging information

A method and system for reducing the amount of processing that an augmented reality platform needs to perform in order to provide an augmented reality experience to a user. The present invention enhances the efficiency of augmented reality processing by reducing the amount of tracking cues and images that need to be processed to determine the narrow pose of a mobile device that outputs the augmented reality experience.

Method and system for disambiguation of augmented reality tracking databases

A method for providing target object surface information to a mobile device user is presented. The method includes receiving a request for target object surface information from a mobile device, determining the pose of the mobile interface device relative to the target object, and obtaining target object surface information for one or more measurable target object surface parameters. The target object data is used to assemble augmented reality surface information configured for viewing in conjunction with a real-time view of the target object captured by the mobile interface device. The target object augmented reality surface information is then transmitted to the mobile device for display to the user.

System and method for using augmented reality display in surface treatment procedures

A method for providing target object information to a mobile device user is presented. The method includes receiving a request for target object information from a mobile device, determining the pose of the mobile interface device relative to the target object, and obtaining target object data for one or more measurable target object parameters (e.g., surface topography). The target object data is used to assemble augmented reality information configured for viewing in conjunction with a real-time view of the target object captured by the mobile interface device. The target object augmented reality information is then transmitted to the mobile device for display to the user.
