ABSTRACT:
Video images of objects in a real-world environment are taken from the perspective of a viewer. The user's field of view may be captured in the video images that are processed to select a segment of the video image or an object depicted in the video image. An image such as a computer-generated annotation or graphic overlay way be registered to the segment, and therefore track the segment from the user's field of view of the segment, without prior knowledge of the spatial relationship of the segment to the real-world environment according to a centroid for an interframe difference of the video image associated with the selected object. The image may be displayed in the user's field of view or in the video image. The computer-generated image tracks the movement of the segment with respect to the video image.
