Abstract
Methods and devices systems related to a computing device for highlighting a tagged object with augmented reality (AR) are described. An example method can include identifying, using a computing device, an object tagged with a sensor within a plurality of objects. The example method can include tracking movement of the object based on communication between the sensor and the computing device and highlighting the object via AR based on the tracking and responsive to a request to locate the object.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- identifying, using a computing device, an object tagged with a sensor within a plurality of objects;
- tracking movement of the object based on communication between the sensor and the computing device;
- and
- highlighting the object via augmented reality (AR) based on the tracking and responsive to a request to locate the object.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a user interface;
- a memory;
- and
- a processor configured to execute executable instructions stored in the memory to:
- identify an object tagged with a sensor within a plurality of objects;
- track movement of the object relative to other objects of the plurality of objects based on communication between the sensor and the apparatus;
- and
- highlight the object by displaying a location of the object via the user interface via augmented reality (AR) based on the tracking and responsive to a request to locate the object.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a camera;
- a user interface;
- a memory;
- and
- a processor configured to execute executable instructions stored in the memory to:
- maintain a communicative coupling to a sensor used to tag an object;
- receive a request to locate the object;
- launch an augmented reality (AR) application responsive to the request;
- locate the object using the communicative coupling;
- highlight the object using the launched AR application;
- and
- display, via AR, the highlighted object via the user interface.
