Transferring Graphic Objects Between Non-Augmented Reality and Augmented Reality Media Domains

A method performed by one or more computer systems each of which computer systems includes at least one processor and a memory, the method comprising:

• in response to a first user input, instantiating an initial instance of a graphical object on a first display as a virtual object in an augmented or mixed reality environment, wherein the graphical object is graphically overlaid on a live background scene;
• causing the capturing of a live video scene with a camera, wherein the live video scene includes a portion of the live background scene;
• determining, based on analysis of the captured live video scene, that the live video scene shows a second display;
• based on the determining that the live video scene shows the second display:
• obtaining a specification of the graphical object, and
• instantiating the graphical object in a memory for use in a displaying of the graphical object on the second display;
• determining, based on analysis of the captured live video scene, that the graphical object on the first display at least partially overlaps the second display in the live background scene;
• and
• in response to a second user input received while the graphical object on the first display at least partially overlaps the second display in the live background scene:
• displaying the instantiated graphical object on the second display in a position such that the display of the graphical object on the first display is registered in alignment with the display of the graphical object on the second display in the live background scene, and
• contemporaneously with the displaying the instantiated graphical object on the second display, removing the graphical object from the first display.
