Abstract

An electronic device places an augmented reality object in an image of a real environment based on a pose of the electronic device and based on image segmentation. The electronic device includes a camera that captures images of the real environment and sensors, such as an inertial measurement unit (IMU), that capture a pose of the electronic device. The electronic device selects an augmented reality (AR) object from a memory, segments a captured image of the real environment into foreground pixels and background pixels, and composites an image for display wherein the AR object is placed between the foreground pixels and the background pixels. As the pose of the electronic device changes, the electronic device maintains the relative position of the AR object with respect to the real environment in images for display.
