Abstract

A system for enabling an augmented reality application includes in a mobile device of a user, displaying a real-world object and allowing the user to interact with the real-world object by drawing a virtual outline of the object and build up the current configuration or its virtual twin. A computer processor retrieves a list of possible component objects of the real-world object. The user interacts with a visual depiction of the scene and move candidate component objects to the virtual outline of the real-world object. The configuration of the real-world object is saved allowing the AR application to retrieve the verified configuration and produce augmented overlays overtop the visual depiction of the real-world object. The configuration is verified by the user using spatial relationships of the component objects associated with the real-world object. The verified object configuration may be tracked in the AR application without needing a recognition procedure.
