Abstract
A system and method for realizing augmented reality. The system includes a visual sensor configured to capture images of an environment and a computing device in communication with the visual sensor. The computing device has a processor and a storage device storing computer executable code. The computer executable code, when executed at the processor, is configured to: identify two-dimensional (2D) objects in the captured images; construct a three-dimensional (3D) map of the environment using the captured images; define 3D objects in the 3D map by mapping the 2D objects identified in the captured images to the corresponding points in the 3D map; and render a 3D model on the 3D map based on the 3D objects defined in the 3D map.
