System and method for generating a progressive representation associated with surjectively mapped virtual and physical reality image data

Abstract

A system of generating a progressive representation associated with virtual and physical reality image data is disclosed. The system receives virtual image data associated with a virtual scene map of a virtual scene, and receives physical image data from the image capturing device, associated with a physical environment of a real scene. Perimeter information of the physical environment is determined. Boundary information of an obstacle associated with the physical environment is determined. A real scene map associated with the physical environment including an obstacle and one or more free space areas is generated. A corresponding virtual barrier is generated in the real scene map, the virtual barrier associated with the boundary information of the obstacle in the real scene map. A folding of the virtual scene map into the one or more free space areas of the real scene map is implemented, the free space areas surround or are adjacent the generated virtual barrier. A progressive representation to the wearable communication device is generated that is associated with virtual scene pixels of the virtual map corresponding to real scene points of the real scene map in a time interval. A corresponding method and computer-readable device are also disclosed.
