Abstract

This paper proposes an indoor scene layout interactive assessment method based on augmented reality (AR) to solve the problems of lacking an intuitive and systematic assessment of indoor scene layout and inefficient human moving for layout readjustment. This paper evaluates the indoor layout from accessibility, ventilation, and illumination and proposes the home interactive evaluation system AR-IHES (Augmented Reality Based Interactive Home Evaluation System) to give evaluation opinions and layout adjustment methods. The accessibility is assessed by using an avatar free-roaming in the scene, ventilation by simulating the natural wind field with a particle system, and illumination by calculating the cumulative influence of each light source at each point of the room. Then, we project the layout into AR, and users wearing AR devices obtain rich evaluation opinions, and freely adjust the design through gestures. The experimental results show that the assessment method can provide real-time feedback of objective and scientific evaluation results and provide users with corresponding modification opinions, which solve both the problems of tricky indoor scene layout evaluation and inefficient adjustment.
