METHOD AND DEVICE FOR COLLECTING IMAGES OF A SCENE FOR GENERATING VIRTUAL REALITY DATA

A method for capturing an image of a scene using an imaging device is disclosed herein. The method includes determining a coordinate system with an origin based on an initial position of the imaging device, generating a first condition to control the position of the imaging device in the coordinated system with respect to the origin, generating a second condition to control the orientation of the imaging device, determining a position and an orientation of the imaging device, generating a first prompt message in response to the position of the imaging device satisfying the first condition, and generating a second prompt message in response to the orientation of the imaging device satisfying the second condition.
