Abstract
Systems and methods of augmented reality mapping are disclosed. Tags associated with collections of interest, areas of interest, and/or points of interest may be superimposed over a video feed of a user device. In response to movement of the user device a single tag associated with a collection of interest may replace a plurality of tags associated with a plurality of points of interest within the collection of interest.
Claims12
An augmented reality mapping method comprising:
- determining, by a location sensor, a location of a user device;
- providing, to a processor by a database, data representative of a collection of interest comprising a plurality of locations of interest within a threshold distance from the location of the user device to the processor,
- wherein a location of interest of the plurality of locations of interest comprises at least one of a point of interest, an area of interest, and a collection of interest;
- wherein the collection of interest comprises a data set associated with further locations of interest within the threshold distance from the location of the user device;
- computing, by the processor, a distance between a further location of interest within the threshold distance and the location of the user device;
- determining, by the processor whether the distance is within a second threshold distance;
- in response to the distance being greater than the second threshold distance, directing, by the processor, a user interface of the user device to display a tag associated with the collection of interest;
- and
- monitoring by the user device the location sensor for an indication of a change in the location of the user device;
- in response to detecting by the user device the indication of the change in the location of the user device, computing by the processor a second distance between the further location of interest within the threshold distance and the location of the user device subsequent to the change in the location;
- in response to the distance subsequent to the change in the location being lesser than a third threshold distance, directing, by the processor, the user interface of the user device to display a tag associated with a location of interest within the plurality of locations of interest.

An augmented reality mapping system comprising:
- a user device comprising a GPS sensor configured to detect a location of the user device operating within a context environment;
- a transceiver configured to receive from a database, data representative of a collection of interest,
- wherein the collection of interest comprises a data set associated with further locations within a first threshold distance from the location of the user device;
- a user device processor configured to receive a computed distance between a further location within the first threshold distance and the location of the user device and an indication of whether the computed distance is within a second threshold distance;
- a user interface configured, in response to the computed distance being greater than the second threshold distance, to be directed by a processor to display a tag associated with the collection of interest,
- wherein the user device monitors the GPS sensor for an indication of a change in the location of the user device,
- wherein, in response to detecting by the user device the indication of the change in the location of the user device, the processor receives a computed second distance between the further location within the threshold distance and the location of the user device subsequent to the change in the location, and
- wherein, in response to the computed second distance subsequent to the change in the location being lesser than a third threshold distance, the processor directs the user interface of the user device to display a tag associated with a point of interest within a plurality of points of interest.
