• an image sensor;
• a memory;
• at least one transceiver;
• and
• at least one processor communicatively coupled to the projector, the memory, and the at least one transceiver, the at least one processor configured to:
• establish communications with a display device having a display screen;
• time-synchronize the display device to the AR device;
