### Claim 23 (depends on 21)

The method according to claim 21, wherein the video capture device of the vehicle is one of mounted in the vehicle or on the vehicle.

### Claim 24 (depends on 21)

The method according to claim 21, wherein the video data of the video capture device is of a forward-facing view outside of the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion.

### Claim 25 (depends on 21)

The method according to claim 21, further comprising:
receiving the selection of the first selectable icon of the plurality of selectable icons, wherein the selection of the first selectable icon identifies the at least one virtual object to include in the augmented video data.

### Claim 26 (depends on 21)

The method according to claim 21, wherein displaying augment video data includes: creating, by the display device, an augmented video data by one of merging, augmenting, and fusing the video data of the video capture device with the at least one virtual object, wherein the at least one virtual object are based on the selection of the first selectable icon by the passenger.

### Claim 27 (depends on 21)

The method according to claim 21, further comprising:
sending a request to identify at least one of a type of color, a type of vehicle, a type of road feature, a word and a character in the augmented video data.

### Claim 28 (depends on 26)

The method according to claim 26, further comprising:
receiving a response to the request to identify at least one of a type of color, a type of vehicle, a type of road feature, a word and a character in the augmented video data; and
assigning a point value based on the received response.

### Claim 29

A system for using a video capture device to alleviate motion sickness via an augmented display for a passenger, the system including:
a data storage device that stores instructions for using a video capture device to alleviate motion sickness via an augmented display for a passenger; and
a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform a method including:
receiving, from a video capture device, video data of a view outside of a vehicle while the vehicle is in motion;
analyzing video data of the video capture device of the view outside of the vehicle while the vehicle is in motion to identify at least one target object in the video data representing a real object in the view outside of the vehicle;
displaying, on the display device for the passenger, the video data including a menu, the menu including a plurality of selectable icons to interact with the identified at least one target object in the video data, wherein the plurality of selectable icons are based on at least one of the identified real object and the analyzed video data; and
