Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes accessing an image of a physical world scene, detecting a number of straight-line segments in the accessed image, identifying a first vanishing point and a second vanishing point in the image, where each vanishing point corresponds to a sub-set of the number of straight-line segments, and where the first vanishing point and the second vanishing point are orthogonal, identifying a planar region in the accessed image represented by one or more straight-line segments associated with the first vanishing point and one or more straight-line segments associated with the second vanishing point, transforming a virtual object associated with the planar region based on one or more properties associated with the planar region, and displaying the transformed virtual object over the image.
