Peer-to-peer augmented reality handlers

A computer program product for generating peer-to-peer augmented reality handlers, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform a method comprising:

• receiving, from a user wearing a pair of augmented reality glasses, an indication that the user intends to place an augmented reality handler at a location where the user is currently looking, the augmented reality handler for visually associating content with an item of interest to the user;
• determining, by the pair of augmented reality glasses, the location where the user is currently looking;
• creating the augmented reality handler in three-dimensional space at the location and presenting, by the pair of augmented reality glasses, the augmented reality handler to the user;
• creating an access control list to determine authorized individuals able to use this handler;
• and
• presenting the augmented reality handler to the authorized individuals, based on the access control list.

A system for generating peer-to-peer augmented reality handlers, comprising:

• a pair of augmented reality glasses, having a processor, a memory, and a display integrated therein, the pair of augmented reality glasses being configured to:
• receive, from a user wearing the pair of augmented reality glasses, an indication that the user intends to place an augmented reality handler at a location where the user is currently looking, the augmented reality handler for visually associating content with an item of interest to the user;
• determine the location where the user is currently looking;
• create the augmented reality handler in three-dimensional space at the location and present the augmented reality handler to the user;
• create an access control list to determine authorized individuals able to use this handler;
• and
• present the augmented reality handler to the authorized individuals, based on the access control list.
