Abstract
According to an aspect, a method of identifying a position of a controllable device includes receiving visual data from an image sensor on a wearable device, generating, by an object recognition module, identification data based on the visual data, and identifying, using the identification data, a first three-dimensional (3D) map from a map database that stores a plurality of 3D maps including the first 3D map and a second 3D map, where the first 3D map is associated with a first controllable device and the second 3D map is associated with a second controllable device. The method includes obtaining a position of the first controllable device in a physical space based on visual positioning data of the first 3D map and rendering a user interface (UI) object on a display in a position that is within a threshold distance of the position of the first controllable device.
