A method is provided for injecting a 3D virtual museum artifact in augmented reality space for interaction therewith by a user of a mobile device. Through the mobile device, a camera feed of a scene in a museum is acquired, which includes a flat surface. The mobile device selects a key frame of the flat surface from the feed. The mobile device determines that the flat surface in the key frame meets a predetermined level of feature richness. The mobile device accesses a 3D virtual museum artifact from a museum database, which had been previously acquired or extrapolated from an actual museum artifact in the collection of the museum. This is injected over at least a part of the key frame. The user is then allowed to interact with the 3D virtual museum artifact.
