ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR PROVIDING AUGMENTED REALITY SERVICE AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17897608 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR PROVIDING AUGMENTED REALITY SERVICE AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

An electronic device described in this patent application includes a frame, a window, a display, a camera, a communication module, a memory, and a processor. The device is designed to capture and display visual information.

  • The device has a frame and a window supported by the frame.
  • It includes a display that can output visual information to the window.
  • A camera is integrated into the frame to capture images of the front of the device.
  • The device has a communication module with circuitry, memory, and a processor.
  • The memory stores instructions that enable the processor to establish a communication connection with an external device.
  • The device can acquire display attribute information of at least one first display connected to the external device.
  • Based on the acquired display attribute information, the device can display virtual objects with the same display attributes as the first display.
  • The virtual objects are displayed in the user's field of view when wearing the electronic device.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Augmented reality: The device can display virtual objects in the user's field of view, enhancing their perception of the real world.
  • Gaming: Virtual objects can be displayed in the user's field of view, creating an immersive gaming experience.
  • Product visualization: The device can display virtual objects with the same display attributes as a specific product, allowing users to visualize how it would look in their environment.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Limited display capabilities: The device can acquire display attribute information from an external device, allowing it to display virtual objects with the same attributes as the connected display.
  • Enhanced user experience: By displaying virtual objects in the user's field of view, the device enhances their perception and interaction with the real world.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Customizable display attributes: The device can adapt its display attributes based on the connected display, providing a seamless and consistent user experience.
  • Immersive augmented reality: By displaying virtual objects in the user's field of view, the device creates an immersive augmented reality experience.
  • Real-time information: The device can acquire display attribute information in real-time, ensuring that the virtual objects are displayed accurately and up-to-date.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device according to various embodiments may include: a frame, a window supported by the frame, a display configured to output visual information to the window, a camera disposed in the frame configured to photograph a front of the frame, a communication module comprising communication circuitry, a memory, and a processor. The memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to: establish a communication connection with an external device through the communication module, acquire display attribute information of at least one first display connected to the external device, and display at least one virtual object having a same display attribute as the at least one first display in at least a portion of an area corresponding to a field of view of a user wearing the electronic device, based on the acquired display attribute information. The display attribute information may include at least one of a magnification, a resolution, a display orientation, or a use or not of multiple displays, of the first display.
