Abstract

A method of facilitating interaction, via a device, with a simulated object that is associated with a physical object other than a user at a physical location in a real environment is provided. The method includes rendering a user interface including a map of a physical location, receiving a selection of a region on the map made by the user via the user interface, obtaining location data of the device while displaying at least one image obtained by a camera of the device, in response to determining that the location data obtained by the device satisfies a criterion specifying where the simulated object associated with the physical object can be generated, providing a simulated object with the at least one image obtained by the camera, and automatically adjusting the simulated object based on change of a motion of the device.
