Virtual camera control using motion control systems for augmented reality
First Claim
1. A method for integrating a virtual rendering system and a motion control system to output a composite render to a display, the method comprising:
- obtaining, from the motion control system, a first camera configuration including a first motion path in a real environment;
programming the virtual rendering system using the first camera configuration to correspondingly control a first virtual camera in a virtual environment;
obtaining, from the virtual rendering system, a first virtually rendered feed of the virtual environment using the first virtual camera;
capturing, from a video capture system, a first video capture feed of the real environment using the first camera configuration;
rendering the composite render by processing the first virtually rendered feed and the first video capture feed; and
outputting the composite render to the display.

Abstract
There is provided a system and method for integrating a virtual rendering system and a motion control system to provide an augmented reality. There is provided a method for integrating a virtual rendering system and a motion control system for outputting a composite render to a display, the method comprising obtaining, from the motion control system, a robotic camera configuration of a robotic camera in a real environment, programming the virtual rendering system using the robotic camera configuration to correspondingly control a virtual camera in a virtual environment, obtaining a virtually rendered feed using the virtual camera, capturing a video capture feed using the robotic camera, rendering the composite render by processing the feeds, and outputting the composite render to the display.
