Abstract
A visual characteristic on a physical surface in the physical space is determined from an image of a physical space, with the physical surface including a first area inside the visual characteristic and a second area outside of the visual characteristic. A first region of virtual space that corresponds to the first area and a second region of virtual space that corresponds to the second area is determined based at least in part on the visual characteristic. Information that includes a position and orientation of a digital object relative to the first region and the second region in the virtual space is determined based at least in part on the visual characteristic. The digital object is rendered at a position and orientation in the virtual space in accordance with the information.
