Abstract
Interference-based augmented reality hosting platforms are presented. Hosting platforms can include networking nodes capable of analyzing a digital representation of scene to derive interference among elements of the scene. The hosting platform utilizes the interference to adjust the presence of augmented reality objects within an augmented reality experience. Elements of a scene can constructively interfere, enhancing presence of augmented reality objects; or destructively interfere, suppressing presence of augmented reality objects.
Claims22
An augmented reality (AR) content providing system comprising:
- at least one computer readable non-transitory memory storing one or more software instructions and an AR object repository comprising a database providing access to available AR objects;
- and
- at least one processor coupled with the at least one computer readable non-transitory memory and configured to perform the following operations upon execution of the one or more software instructions:
- obtaining digital data associated with a real-time environment of an AR capable mobile device, the digital data including a device location and at least one virtual element attribute;
- determining at least one gaming context related to the AR capable mobile device in the real-time environment based at least in part on the device location;
- identifying a subset of relevant AR objects from the AR object repository based on the at least one gaming context;
- determining whether to alter a presence along a spectrum of at least one relevant AR object from the subset of relevant AR objects based on at least the device location and the at least one virtual element attribute;
- and
- causing the AR capable mobile device to render the at least one relevant AR object superimposed on a real-world image of the real-time environment and according to the determined altered presence.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing one or more software instructions that, upon execution by one or more processors, perform the following operations:
- obtaining digital data associated with a real-time environment of an AR capable mobile device, the digital data including a device location and at least one virtual element attribute;
- determining at least one gaming context related to the AR capable mobile device in the real-time environment based at least in part on the device location;
- identifying a subset of relevant AR objects from an AR object repository based on the at least one gaming context, wherein the AR object repository comprises a database providing access to one or more available AR objects;
- determining whether to alter a presence along a spectrum of at least one relevant AR object from the subset of relevant AR objects based on at least the device location and the at least one virtual element attribute;
- and
- causing the AR capable mobile device to render the at least one relevant AR object superimposed on a real-world image of the real-time environment and according to the determined altered presence.
A method of providing augmented reality (AR) content, the method comprising:
- obtaining digital data associated with a real-time environment of an AR capable mobile device, the digital data including a device location and at least one virtual element attribute;
- determining at least one gaming context related to the AR capable mobile device in the real-time environment based at least in part on the device location;
- identifying a subset of relevant AR objects from an AR object repository based on the at least one gaming context, wherein the AR object repository comprises a database providing access to one or more available AR objects;
- determining whether to alter a presence along a spectrum of at least one relevant AR object from the subset of relevant AR objects based on at least the device location and the at least one virtual element attribute;
- and
- causing the AR capable mobile device to render the at least one relevant AR object superimposed on a real-world image of the real-time environment and according to the determined altered presence.
