Abstract

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system for presenting augmented reality (AR) items. The system performs operations including receiving a video that includes a depiction of a real-world environment and generating a 3D model of the real-world environment based on the video. The operations include determining, based on the 3D model of the real-world environment, that an AR item has been placed in the video at a particular 3D position and identifying a portion of the 3D model corresponding to the real-world environment currently being displayed on a screen. The operations include determining that the 3D position of the AR item is excluded from the portion of the 3D model currently being displayed on the screen and in response, displaying an indicator that identifies the 3D position of the AR item in the 3D model relative to the portion of the 3D model currently being displayed on a screen.
