Abstract
A method for incorporating a real object at varying depths within a rendered three-dimensional architectural design space can include capturing data from a real environment, wherein the real environment comprises at least one real object within a physical architectural space. The method can also comprise extracting the at least one real object from the captured data from the real environment. Further, the method can include providing a rendered three-dimensional architectural design space comprising at least one virtual architectural component. The method can also include projecting the captured data from the real environment on a first plane within the rendered three-dimensional architectural design space and projecting the extracted at least one real object on a at least one additional plane within the rendered three-dimensional architectural design space, such that the rendered at least one real object is properly occluded within the rendered three-dimensional architectural design space.
