    摘要: Described herein are platforms, systems, media, and methods for measuring a space by launching an active augmented reality (AR) session on a device comprising a camera and at least one processor; calibrating the AR session by establishing a fixed coordinate system, receiving a position and orientation of one or more horizontal or vertical planes in the space in reference to the fixed coordinate system, and receiving a position and orientation of the camera in reference to the fixed coordinate system; constructing a backing model; providing an interface allowing a user to capture at least one photo of the space during the active AR session; extracting camera data from the AR session for the at least one photo; extracting the backing model from the AR session; and storing the camera data and the backing model in association with the at least one photo.

    摘要: A Quantified Image Measurement System that creates accurate physical measurement data from digital pictures is disclosed. The system can use any image format and enhances the image file with measurement data and data transformation information that enables the creation of any type of geometrical or dimensional measurement from the stored photograph. This file containing the original digital image along with the supplemental data is referred to as a Quantified Image File or QIF. The QIF can be shared with other systems via email, cloud syncing or other types of sharing technology. Once shared, existing systems such as CAD applications or web/cloud servers can use the QIF and the associated QIF processing software routines to extract physical measurement data and use the data for subsequent processing or building geometrically accurate models of the objects or scene in the image. Additionally smart phones and other portable devices can use the QIF to make measurements on the spot or share between portable devices. In addition, the quantified image measurement system of this invention eliminates the need for capturing the image from any particular viewpoint by using multiple reference points and software algorithms to correct for any off-angle distortions.
