Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method for determining a likelihood a moving object in a real-world scene is an object being pointed at by a mobile device that includes capabilities of a pointing device, comprising the steps of: (A) pointing a mobile electronic device that includes capabilities of a pointing device (mobile device) at a moving object of interest in the real-world scene; (B) generating with the mobile device a mobile device geodetic position and pointing direction, and transmitting the mobile device geodetic position and pointing direction, and standard deviations relating to generating the mobile device geodetic position and pointing direction to a system server; (C) mapping a three-dimensional representation of a real-world scene containing the objects in the real-world scene, including the moving object of interest, and transmitting the three-dimensional representation to the system server; (D) a system server performing the substeps of,
