Patent ID: 8823697

Claim:
A mobile interface apparatus, cooperating with a table top interface apparatus, for providing an augmented reality, comprising: a camera module; a display module; a communication module communicating with the table top interface apparatus, wherein the table top interface apparatus comprises a table top display device providing a cooperative space on which at least one real object is disposed; and a control module configured to: detect, via the camera module, position information and orientation information of the real object, display, via the display module, an image of a virtual object onto the real object according to the position information and the orientation information, wherein the table top interface apparatus displays, via the table top display device, an image of a background scene related to the virtual object on the cooperative space, receive, via the communication module, manipulation information being used for modifying the virtual object from the table top interface apparatus, and adjusting the image of the virtual object based on the manipulation information, wherein the table top interface apparatus modifies the image of the background scene considering the adjusted image of the virtual object, wherein a spatial coordinate system of the mobile interface apparatus and a spatial coordinate system of the table top interface apparatus are matched by exchanging coordinate data of the real object between the mobile interface apparatus and the table top interface apparatus under temporal synchronization.
