US Patent 11682175 Previsualization devices and systems for the film industry

The present disclosure relates to systems that capture a combination of image data and environmental data of the environment. The system uses the environmental data to create a detailed virtual scan of the environment. Computer generated models and images (“assets”) are inserted into the detailed virtual environment from the scan. These assets are scaled and placed within the virtual environment at specific locations and having a specific orientation. The scaled and positioned asset is then composited with the real-time video signal allowing a user to view the asset in real-time on a display.
