Augmented reality quick-start and user guide

A method of providing a quick-start or user guide, the method comprising:

• identifying, in a real time camera video feed, a product;
• determining an image skew of the product based on a pre-defined image of the product;
• rendering, with a processor, a 3D model of the product superimposed on the product in the real time camera video feed to provide an augmented reality view, wherein the 3D model is rendered based on the image skew;
• displaying content in the augmented reality view by overlaying the content on the product in the real time camera video feed, wherein the content is mapped to the product in the real time camera video feed based on the 3D model;
• determining if the product is no longer present in the real time camera video feed;
• in response to determining that the product is no longer present in the real time camera video feed, continue displaying the content in the augmented reality view until an expiration of a predetermined period of time.

A device comprising:

• a display;
• a processor;
• and
• a memory device coupled to the processor and having a program stored thereon for execution by the processor, the program, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to:
• identify, in a real time camera video feed, a product;
• determine an image skew of the product based on a pre-defined image of the product;
• render a 3D model of the product superimposed on the product in the real time camera video feed to provide an augmented reality view to the display, wherein the 3D model is rendered based on the image skew;
• display content in the augmented reality view by overlaying the content on the product in the real time camera video feed, wherein the content is mapped to the product in the real time camera video feed based on the 3D model;
• determine if the product is no longer present in the real time camera video feed;
• in response to determining that the product is no longer present in the real time camera video feed, continue to display the content in the augmented reality view until an expiration of a predetermined period of time.

A machine-readable storage device having instructions for execution by a processor to perform a method of:

• determining an image skew of a product identified in a feed based on a pre-defined image of the product;
• rendering a 3D model of the product superimposed on the product in the feed to provide an augmented reality view, wherein the 3D model is rendered based on the image skew;
• displaying content in the augmented reality view by overlaying the content on the product in the feed, wherein the content is mapped to the product in the feed based on the 3D model;
• determining if the product is no longer present in the feed;
• in response to determining that the product is no longer present in the feed, continue displaying the content in the augmented reality view until an expiration of a predetermined period of time.
