Abstract

A computer-implemented method includes capturing visual data of an environment using an image sensor of an electronic device and non-visual data of the environment using one or more non-image sensors of the electronic device. Feature descriptors of one or more objects in the environment are generated using the visual data of the environment and the non-visual data of the environment. A map of the environment is generated using the feature descriptors of the one or more objects. One or more virtual objects are anchored to at least one of the objects using the map. The visual data, the non-visual data, and the map are combined in a digital multimedia container file. The digital multimedia container file is stored on the electronic device or on another electronic device connected to the electronic device.
