Abstract
A system, method or compute program product for generating composite images. One of the systems includes a capture device to capture an image of a physical environment; and one or more storage devices storing instructions that are operable, when executed by one or more processors of the system, to cause the one or more processors to: obtain an image of the physical environment as captured by the capture device, identify a visually-demarked region on a surface in the physical environment as depicted in the image, process the image to generate a composite image of the physical environment that includes a depiction of a virtual object, wherein a location of the depiction of the virtual object in the composite image is based on a location of the depiction of the visually-demarked region in the image, and cause the composite image to be displayed for a user.
