Location-based augmented reality (AR) administration and management

A computer system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• one or more memories;
• and
• one or more computer-readable hardware storage devices, the one or more computer-readable hardware storage devices containing program code executable by the one or more processors via the one or more memories to implement a method for providing location-based augmented reality (AR) administration and management, the method comprising:
• receiving login credentials from a user;
• identifying the user based on the login credentials and a privilege level associated with the user;
• granting the user access to an application of the computer system based on the identity of the user and the privilege level associated with the user;
• selecting the user to have enhanced privileges based on the identity of the user and the privilege level associated with the user;
• creating a defined area in the real world for the user;
• determining if the user is within the defined area;
• in response to a determining that the user is within the defined area, providing the enhanced privileges to the user;
• and
• in response to a determining that the user is outside of the defined area, prohibiting the user from utilizing the enhanced privileges.

A computing device comprising at least:

• an augmented reality (AR) engine;
• a global positioning system (GPS) engine;
• and
• a camera,
• the AR engine being configured to:
• receive login credentials from a user;
• identify the user based on the login credentials and a privilege level associated with the user;
• grant the user access to the AR engine based on the identity of the user and the privilege level associated with the user;
• select the user to have enhanced privileges based on the identity of the user and the privilege level associated with the user,
• wherein the enhanced privileges comprise granting the user increased interaction capabilities with digitally created content by the AR engine, and
• wherein the digitally created content is selected from the group consisting of:
• textual content, two-dimensional (2D) content, three-dimensional (3D) content, video content, and audio content;
• and
• engage the GPS engine and/or the camera to create a defined area in the real world for the user;
• and
• the GPS engine being configured to:
• in response to determining that the user is within the defined area, provide enhanced privileges to the user;
• and
• in response to determining that the user is outside of the defined area, prohibit the user from utilizing the enhanced privileges.
