Abstract
A computer-implemented method is provided for use in location correction of virtual objects in a virtual model of a real-world scene. Location of an object consists of both position and orientation of the virtual object. The method includes generating the virtual model, including a virtual object, and acquiring at least one digital image of a real-world object within the real-world scene, wherein the real-world object corresponds to the virtual object. The method also includes calculating an image-based positional difference between at least one predefined point on the virtual object and at least one corresponding point on the real-world object, adjusting the position and/or the orientation of the virtual object based on this image positional difference, and adjusting the virtual model with respect to the corrected location of the virtual object.
