Abstract
The present disclosure includes systems, methods, computer readable media, and devices that can generate accurate augmented reality objects based on tracking a writing device in relation to a real-world surface. In particular, the systems and methods described herein can detect an initial location of a writing device, and further track movement of the writing device on a real-world surface based on one or more sensory inputs. For example, disclosed systems and methods can generate an augmented reality object based on pressure detected at a tip of a writing device, based on orientation of the writing device, based on motion detector elements of the writing device (e.g., reflective materials, emitters, or object tracking shapes), and/or optical sensors. The systems and methods further render augmented reality objects within an augmented reality environment that appear on the real-world surface based on tracking the movement of the writing device.
