More Information
Summary:A user interface comprises an augmented reality (AR) overlay on top of a live camera feed that facilitates positioning guidance information in real-time in a location being scanned. A guide is provided and moves (and/or causes the user to move a scan) through a scene during scanning such that a user can follow the guide, and conformance to the guide can be tracked during the scanning to determine if a scanning motion is within requirements. This reduces a cognitive load on the user required to obtain a scan because the user is simply following the guide. Real-time feedback depending on the user's adherence or lack of conformance to guided movements is provided to the user. The guide is configured to follow a pre-planned route, or a route determined in real-time during the scan.
