Cyril Diagne has assembled a fascinating little augmented reality tool from a few components: with his help, you can mark an object on a smartphone and then paste it into a picture on a computer screen - visual copy and paste of real objects into digital content.
;) AR Cut and Paste The next step is to calculate where exactly on the computer screen the virtual object should be inserted. The communication between the smartphone and the PC runs via a local server on the computer, which receives the object data from the smartphone via the local network and then inserts it into Photoshop via Remote Connection in the form of a separate layer. It is also responsible for calculating the position using the Screenpoint algorithm. At the moment, the tool is still a prototype in the development stage, but if you have some programming skills, you can try it out for yourself, the  source code is available via github plus installation instructions are freely available. But all other interested people can hope, because soon there will be an own, easier to install app called AR Copy Paste. Digital copying of an object still takes about 2.5 seconds and pasting about four, but the respective algorithms can easily be further accelerated as the tool is further developed. In a separate Twitter thread, the developer provides information on some questions about the tool. We are curious - for the tool a whole range of practical applications for creative work or communication can be presented as well as an extension for cooperation with other programs. The interest is huge: the video has already been viewed about 5 million times.  more infos at bei mobile.twitter.comdeutsche Version dieser Seite: Cooles Tool ermöglicht Copy & Paste von Gegenstände aus der echten Welt per Smartphone |
