System for providing synchronized sharing of augmented reality content in real time across multiple devices

A system comprising:

• a plurality of augmented reality (AR)-capable devices for providing respective users with an augmented view of a real-world environment;
• and
• an augmented reality (AR) platform configured to communicate and exchange data with each of the plurality of AR-capable devices over a network, the AR platform comprising a hardware processor coupled to non-transitory, computer-readable memory containing instructions executable by the processor to cause the AR platform to:
• receive, from each of the AR-capable devices, localization data associated with at least one of an anchor-based system and an image tracking-based system for establishing a location of a respective AR-capable device within the real-world environment;
• process the localization data and assign a location of each AR-capable device relative to a shared, fixed origin point within the real-world environment;
• and
• transmit AR content to each of the AR-capable devices, the AR content configured to be displayed and rendered by each AR-capable device based, at least in part, on the assigned location of each respective AR-capable device.
