Abstract
A system and method of organically generating a camera-pose map is disclosed. A target image is obtained of a location deemed suitable for augmenting with a virtual augmentation or graphic. An initial camera-pose map is created having a limited number of calibrated camera-pose images having calculated camera-pose locations and homographies to the target image. Then, during the event, the system automatically obtains current images of the event venue and determines homographies to the nearest calibration camera-pose image in the camera-pose map. The separation in camera-pose space between the current images and the camera-pose images are calculated. If this separation is less than a predetermined threshold, that current image is fully calibrated and added to the camera-pose map, thereby growing the map organically.
