Abstract:
A method of registering multiple devices to a single coordinate system is disclosed. A digital video is received from a digital camera device. The digital video presents a 2D view of a three-dimensional environment surrounding the mobile device. A set of simulated images is generated based on each video frame in the digital video. The simulated images and video frame are analyzed to determine features and create scale and orientation invariant descriptors that include depth information for the features. The descriptors and other data are sent to the server over a network. The descriptors are matched to feature descriptors from a second mobile device. A registration matrix is determined that represents a transformation from a coordinate system in the mobile device to a coordinate system in the second mobile device. The registration matrix is stored on the server to perform the registering of the multiple devices.

Claim (Index 1):
A system comprising:\n a mobile device with one or more hardware processors, a mobile-device memory, and a digital camera device configured to capture digital video including depth information; and a server device with one or more hardware processors and a server-device memory; a multiple device registration module in the mobile-device memory; and a multiple device registration server module in the server-device memory; wherein the multiple device registration module, executable by the one or more hardware processors on the mobile device, is configured to perform operations for registering multiple devices to a single coordinate system, the operations comprising:\n receiving the digital video from the digital camera device, the digital video presenting a 2D view of a three-dimensional environment surrounding the mobile device; \n generating a set of simulated images based on each video frame in the digital video; \n analyzing the simulated images and video frame to determine features and create scale and orientation invariant descriptors that include depth information for the features; \n sending the descriptors and other data to the server over a network; and \n wherein the multiple device registration server module, executable by the one or more hardware processors on the server, is configured to perform additional operations for registering multiple devices to a single coordinate system, additional operations comprising:\n receiving the descriptors and the other data; \n matching the descriptors to feature descriptors from a second mobile device; \n determining a registration matrix that represents a transformation from a coordinate system in the mobile device to a coordinate system in the second mobile device; and \n storing the registration matrix on the server to perform the registering of the multiple devices.
