ABSTRACT:
One embodiment includes a method of generating a 3D model from an image using a computer system. The image is of an arrangement of physical objects. The method comprises the following. Display the image. Create a 3D model primitive to represent at least a portion of a physical object in the image by specifying a set of parameters that correspond to a first set of locations of the primitive on the image. Modify the primitive to make it more closely match the location of the physical object in the image by specifying a second set of locations on the image for the primitive. Display a 2D representation of the primitive, including displaying a difference between the first set of locations and the second set of locations of the primitive on the image. In one embodiment, displaying the difference between the first set of locations and the second set of locations helps a user to see where the user is moving part a primitive from. This helps the user to better place the primitives and create a better model from the image.
