System for generating augmented reality content from a perspective view of an unmanned aerial vehicle

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage device having a computer readable program stored thereon, wherein the computer readable program when executed on a computer causes the computer to:

• capture, with an augmented reality image capture device from a perspective view of an augmented reality device, real-world imagery of a user within an augmented reality environment;
• generate, with an augmented reality processor, virtual imagery to overlay the captured real-world imagery;
• determine, with the augmented reality processor, a position and an orientation of an augmented reality device accessory within a common coordinate space, the common coordinate space being common to the augmented reality device and a UAV that simultaneously captures the real-world imagery from a perspective view of the UAV, the perspective view of the augmented reality device being distinct from the perspective view of the UAV;
• and
• provide, from the augmented reality processor to a UAV processor, virtual imagery manipulation data, the virtual imagery manipulation data indicating a virtual interactive effect that is rendered by the augmented reality device from the perspective view of the augmented reality device based on the position and the orientation of the augmented reality device accessory, the virtual imagery manipulation data further indicating the position and the orientation of the augmented reality device within the common coordinate space so that the UAV processor modifies the virtual imagery from the perspective view of the UAV based on the position and the orientation of the augmented reality device accessory within the common coordinate space and generates a composite of the captured real-world imagery from the perspective view of the UAV and the modified virtual imagery from the perspective view of the UAV, the UAV processor being integrated within the UAV.
