Abstract

A method of displaying virtual information in a view of a real environment comprising the following steps: providing a system for displaying of virtual information in a view of a real environment, determining a current pose of at least one part of the system relative to at least one part of the real environment and providing accuracy information of the current pose, providing multiple pieces of virtual information, and assigning a respective one of the pieces of virtual information to one of different parameters indicative of different pose accuracy information, and displaying at least one of the pieces of virtual information in the view of the real environment according to the accuracy information of the current pose in relation to the assigned parameter of the at least one of the pieces of virtual information.
