Systems, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Sharing Augmented Reality Environments - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18126352 Titled 'Systems, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Sharing Augmented Reality Environments'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes a technology that involves two electronic devices, one with processors, memory, cameras, and a display, and another with similar components. The first device captures an image of the second device, which displays position information on its own display. This position information indicates the location of the second device within an augmented reality environment. After capturing this image, the first device uses the position information to display virtual objects within the augmented reality environment on its own display.
Original Abstract Submitted
A first electronic device with one or more processors, memory, one or more cameras, and a display generation component captures, with the one or more cameras, an image of a second electronic device that includes position information displayed via a display generation component of the second electronic device. The position information indicates a location of the second electronic device within an augmented reality environment that includes a physical environment in which the first electronic device and the second electronic device are located. The first electronic device, after capturing the image of the second electronic device that includes the position information, displays, via the display generation component of the first electronic device, one or more virtual objects within the augmented reality (AR) environment using the position information captured from the second electronic device.
