3D PAINTING ON AN EYEWEAR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240012549 titled '3D PAINTING ON AN EYEWEAR DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system and method for using augmented reality (AR) technology to provide painting options on eyewear devices. The system allows users to select and interact with different AR painting options using touch input on the eyewear device.

  • The system displays multiple AR painting options for the user to choose from.
  • When the user touches the touch input interface on the eyewear device with a single finger, the system detects this touch input.
  • In response to the touch input, the system selects a first AR painting option from the available options.
  • While the user continues to touch the touch input interface, the system displays a second AR painting option related to the first option.
  • The system allows the user to perform a selection associated with the second AR painting option by detecting the movement of the single finger along the touch input interface.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Augmented reality painting and drawing experiences on eyewear devices.
  • Interactive art installations and exhibitions.
  • Virtual reality gaming experiences with painting and customization features.
  • Educational tools for teaching art and design.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Enhances user interaction and engagement with AR painting options.
  • Provides a more intuitive and immersive painting experience.
  • Allows for easy selection and exploration of different painting options.
  • Enables precise and natural finger movements for painting and selection.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Offers a unique and interactive way to create and explore art in augmented reality.
  • Enhances user creativity and expression through AR painting options.
  • Provides a user-friendly interface for selecting and interacting with AR painting options.
  • Can be used in various industries such as entertainment, education, and design.


Original Abstract Submitted

systems and methods are provided for performing operations comprising: displaying a plurality of augmented reality painting options; detecting, by a touch input interface of the eyewear device, a first touch input comprising a single finger touching the touch input interface; selecting a first augmented reality painting option of the plurality of augmented reality painting options in response to the first touch input; while continuing to detect continuous touch between the single finger and the touch input interface following selection of the first augmented reality painting option, displaying a second augmented reality painting option related to the first augmented reality painting option; and performing a selection associated with the second augmented reality painting option in response to detecting, by the touch input interface, movement of the single finger along the touch input interface while continuing to detect the continuous touch.
