Abstract

Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that facilitate the creation of a 3D model for object detection based on a scan of the object. Some implementations provide a user interface that a user interacts with to facilitate a scan of an object to create 3D model of the object for later object detection. The user interface may include an indicator that provides visual or audible feedback to the user indicating the direction that the capturing device is facing relative to the object being scanned. The direction of the capture device may be identified using sensors on the device (e.g., inertial measurement unit (IMU), gyroscope, etc.) or other techniques (e.g., visual inertial odometry (VIO)) and based on the user positioning the device so that the object is in view.
