System and method for providing improved augmented reality content

A method for generating improved augmented reality content, the method comprising:

• generating a focus map using frame data that represents a frame comprising one or more frame objects, the focus map comprising a level of focus for the one more frame objects;
• grouping an augmented reality object with at least one of the frame objects, the augmented reality object comprising a level of focus;
• and
• using the focus map for the at least one frame object grouped with the augmented reality object to cause a modification to the level of focus for the augmented reality object.

An electronic device for generating improved augmented reality content, the electronic device comprising circuitry coupled to a memory, wherein the memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the circuitry to:

• obtain frame data for a frame of one or more frames captured using a camera, the frame data comprising a level of focus for one or more frame objects in the frame;
• associate an augmented reality object with at least one of the one or more frame objects;
• determine a fit factor between a level of focus of the augmented reality object and level of focus of the at least one of the frame objects associated with the augmented reality object;
• and
• if the fit factor does not satisfy a threshold, apply a decrease to the level of focus of the augmented reality object in order generate an increased fit factor.
