Wearable electronic glasses (WEG) comprising:
- global positioning system (GPS) that determines a GPS location of the WEG worn on a head of a user;
- one or more sensors that determine a compass direction that the user is facing;
- one or more interfaces that transmit, via one or more wireless networks, the GPS location and the compass direction to second WEG worn on a head of a second user and that receive, from the second WEG, a location and an orientation of a person that is visible with a naked eye of the second user but obstructed and not visible with a naked eye of the user;
- and
- a display that displays, while the person is obstructed and not visible with the naked eye of the user, an augmented reality (AR) map with an arrow that points in a direction of the orientation of the person and is located on the AR map at the location of the person.
2 more elements
A method comprising:
- determining, with at least one of first wearable electronic glasses (WEG) worn on a head of a first user and a first handheld portable electronic device (HPED) with the first user, a first global positioning system (GPS) location of the first user and a first compass direction that the first user is facing;
- determining, with at least one of second WEG worn on a head of a second user and a second HPED with the second user, a second GPS location of the second user, a second compass direction that the second user is facing, and a location of a person captured with a camera in the second WEG when the person is not visible to the first user due to the person being obstructed;
- sharing, over a wireless network and to a map, the first GPS location, the first compass direction, the second GPS location, the second compass direction, and the location of the person captured with the camera in the second WEG;
- and
- displaying, with the first WEG worn on the head of the first user, the map with a first arrow that shows the location of the person captured with the camera in the second WEG worn on the head of the second user, and a second arrow that points in the second compass direction that the second user is facing and that is located on the map at the second GPS location of the second user.
2 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions that cause one or more electronic devices to execute a method comprising:
- determining, from information captured with first wearable electronic glasses (WEG) worn on a head of a first user, a location of a person that is visible with a naked eye of the first user but is obstructed and not visible with a naked eye of a second user;
- sharing the information captured with the first WEG to an augmented reality (AR) map;
- displaying, on a display of the second WEG worn on a head of the second user and while the person is obstructed and not visible with the naked eye of the second user, the AR map that shows an AR image of the person at the location of the person;
- and
- moving, on the display of the second WEG worn on the head of the second user and while the person is obstructed and not visible with the naked eye of the second user, the AR image of the person on the AR map to coincide with real-time movements of the person determined from the information captured with the first WEG.
