Abstract
A computer-implemented method for recognizing a plurality of real-world toy construction elements of a toy construction system assembled to form a real-world toy construction model, each real-world toy construction element comprising coupling members for detachably connecting the real-world toy construction element with one or more other real-world toy construction elements of the toy construction system so as to form the real-world toy construction model; wherein the method comprises: receiving at least one captured image of the real world toy construction model; processing the at least one captured image so as to at least preliminarily recognise at least a first real-world toy construction element in the at least one captured image as a first known real-world toy construction element from stored digital representations of a plurality of known real-world toy construction elements of the toy construction system, each digital representation comprising connectivity information indicative of how the corresponding real-world toy construction element can be detachably connected to other real-world toy construction elements of the toy construction system; detecting image data of at least…
