Abstract
In one embodiment, the system captures an image using a camera. The image is associated with a user viewpoint. The system identifies a surface in the image using a machine learning model. The surface has associated properties meeting one or more criteria for rendering a three-dimensional virtual space. The system determines relative positions and orientations of three-dimensional display elements to the surface. The system determines the three-dimensional virtual space based at least on the properties of the surface, the user viewpoint, and the relative positions and orientations of the three-dimensional display elements to the surface. The three-dimensional virtual space comprises the three-dimensional display elements, which are positioned behind the surface. The system renders the three-dimensional virtual space on the surface. The three-dimensional virtual space is visible through a display area on the surface as seen from the user viewpoint.
