Methods for visualizing and interacting with a three dimensional object in a collaborative augmented reality environment and apparatuses thereof

A collaborative computing device, comprising memory comprising programmed instructions stored thereon and one or more processors configured to be capable of executing the stored programmed instructions to:

• establish a collaborative session for visualizing and interacting with a three-dimensional object in a collaborative augmented reality environment between two or more of a plurality of computing devices;
• obtain position and orientation information of each of the two or more of the plurality of computing devices;
• receive an interaction instruction with respect to the three-dimensional object from a first of the two or more of the plurality of computing devices;
• and
• determine and provide one or more instructions to adjust visualization of the three-dimensional object on each of the other of the two or more of the plurality of computing devices based on the received interaction instruction and the obtained position and orientation information of each of the two or more of the plurality of computing devices.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions comprising executable code which when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to:

• establish a collaborative session for visualizing and interacting with a three-dimensional object in a collaborative augmented reality environment between two or more of a plurality of computing devices;
• obtain position and orientation information of each of the two or more of the plurality of computing devices;
• receive an interaction instruction with respect to the three-dimensional object from a first of the two or more of the plurality of computing devices;
• and
• determine and provide one or more instructions to adjust visualization of the three-dimensional object on each of the other of the two or more of the plurality of computing devices based on the received interaction instruction and the obtained position and orientation information of each of the two or more of the plurality of computing devices.
