Abstract
A method of aligning a digital model of a structure with a displayed portion of the structure within a video stream is disclosed. An approximate position of the camera device in the digital model is determined. A position and an orientation are determined for a plurality of digital surfaces within the digital model visible from the approximate position of the camera device. A position and an orientation of a plurality of object surfaces visible in a video stream are determined. A 3D translation, a 3D scale, and a 3D rotation that maximize an alignment of the position and orientation of the plurality of digital surfaces with the position and orientation of the plurality of object surfaces are determined. The 3D translation, the 3D scale, and the 3D rotation are applied to the digital model and the digital model is displayed contemporaneously with a display of the video stream.
