Abstract
This application generally relates to systems and methods for generating and rendering visualizations of an object or environment using 2D and 3D image data of the object or the environment captured by a mobile device. In one embodiment, a method includes providing, by the system, a representation of a 3D model of an environment from a first perspective of the virtual camera relative to the 3D model, receiving, by the system, input requesting movement of the virtual camera relative to the 3D model, and selecting, by the system, a first 2D image from a plurality of two dimensional images associated with different capture positions and orientations relative to the 3D model based on association of a capture position and orientation of the first 2D image with a second perspective of the virtual camera relative to the 3D model determined based on the movement.
