Systems and methods of lift to find augmented reality guidance

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• determining, by a position tracking engine, a first position of a local device within a predetermined locale;
• obtaining a second position of a first item within the predetermined locale;
• generating, by a mapping engine, route data indicative of a route from the first position to the second position;
• tracking, by the position tracking engine, a real-time position of the local device;
• in response to the real-time position of the local device being within a predetermined distance of the second position, activating an image capture element of the local device;
• receiving, by a computer vision engine, image data from the image capture element of the local device;
• determining, by the computer vision engine, whether the first item is within the image data;
• in response to determining the first item is within the image data, generating, by an interface generation engine, an item highlighter indicating a position of the first item within the image data;
• and
• in response to determining the first item is not within the image data, generating, by the interface generation engine, a direction indicator indicating a position of the first item relative to a field of view of the image data.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause a device to perform operations comprising:

• determining, by a position tracking engine, a first position of a local device within a predetermined locale;
• obtaining a second position of a first item within the predetermined locale;
• generating, by a mapping engine, route data indicative of a route from the first position to the second position;
• tracking, by the position tracking engine, a real-time position of the local device;
• in response to the real-time position of the local device being within a predetermined distance of the second position, activating an image capture element of the local device;
• receiving, by a computer vision engine, image data from the image capture element of the local device;
• determining, by the computer vision engine, whether the first item is within the image data;
• in response to determining the first item is within the image data, generating, by an interface generation engine, an item highlighter indicating a position of the first item within the image data;
• and
• in response to determining the first item is not within the image data, generating, by the interface generation engine, a direction indicator indicating a position of the first item relative to a field of view of the image data.
