ABSTRACT:
An interactive system for providing a mixed reality experience to a user, the system including an object having at least two surfaces, where each surface having a marker. The system also including an image capturing device to capture images of the object in a first scene and a microprocessor configured to track the position and orientation of the object in the first scene by tracking at least two surfaces of the object and identifying at least one marker. In addition, the microprocessor is also configured retrieve multimedia content associated with an identified marker and generates a second scene including the associated multimedia content superimposed over the first scene in a relative position to the identified marker and the microprocessor is configured to provide a mixed reality experience to a user using the second scene.
