EXTERNAL COMPUTER VISION FOR AN EYEWEAR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18745772 titled 'EXTERNAL COMPUTER VISION FOR AN EYEWEAR DEVICE

Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a system and method for using an external vision system with an augmented reality (AR) device to overlay AR objects on a real-world environment and modify them based on interaction data from an external client device.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Establishing communication between the AR device and an external client device.
  • Overlaying AR objects on the real-world environment viewed through the AR device.
  • Receiving interaction data from the external client device to modify the AR objects accordingly.

Potential Applications: This technology could be used in gaming, education, training simulations, remote assistance, and industrial applications.

Problems Solved: This technology addresses the need for more interactive and dynamic AR experiences by incorporating external client device data for real-time modifications.

Benefits:

  • Enhanced user engagement and interaction in AR environments.
  • Real-time customization and adaptation of AR objects based on external data.
  • Improved user experience and immersion in AR applications.

Commercial Applications: The technology could be applied in the gaming industry for more interactive gameplay experiences, in the education sector for immersive learning environments, and in industrial settings for training simulations and remote assistance.

Questions about AR Technology: 1. How does the system establish communication between the AR device and the external client device? 2. What are the potential implications of using external client device data to modify AR objects in real-time?


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems and methods are provided for performing operations on an augmented reality (AR) device using an external vision system. The system establishes, by the AR device, a communication with an external client device. The system overlays, by the AR device, a first AR object on a real-world environment being viewed using the AR device. The system receives interaction data from the external client device representing movement of a user determined by the external client device. The system, in response to receiving the interaction data from the external client device, modifies the first AR object by the AR device.
