Abstract
A search system, a user device, and a server for AR service are disclosed. The search system includes a search engine configured to search a web content and a marker, in response to an input of a user, a matching unit configured to match the searched web content with the searched marker, and an output unit configured to transmit a document including the searched web content and the searched marker to the user.
Claims22
A system comprising:
- a search engine configured to search a web content and a marker, in response to an input of a user;
- a matching unit configured to match the searched web content with the searched marker;
- a marker input unit configured to receive a marker and its corresponding index from an external device, and configured to transmit the received marker and the index to the marker database;
- and
- an output unit configured to transmit a document including the searched web content and the searched marker.
(canceled)
An augmented reality (AR) service server operable to be in communication with an AR user device, the AR service server comprising:
- a marker data receiver configured to receive marker data from the AR user device;
- a virtual reality (VR) data database configured to store VR data;
- a VR data retriever configured to receive the marker data from the marker data receiver and to access the VR data database to search for VR data corresponding to the received marker data;
- a VR data transmitter configured to transmit the searched VR data to the AR user device;
- a VR data generator configured to generate the VR data and to provide the generated VR data to the VR data database;
- and
- a marker generator configured to generate the marker corresponding to the generated VR data and to provide the generated marker to the VR data database.
(canceled)
An augmented reality (AR) user device operable to be in communication with an AR service server, the AR user device comprising:
- a marker sensor configured to sense and extract a marker from a real-world image captured by a camera;
- a marker data transmitter configured to transmit marker data of the marker to the AR service server;
- a virtual reality (VR) data receiver configured to receive VR data corresponding to the marker data from the AR service server;
- and
- an AR data generator configured to generate AR data by using the received VR data and the real-world image.
