Systems for managing errors utilizing augmented reality are provided. One system includes a transceiver configured to communicate with a systems management console, capture device for capturing environmental inputs, memory storing code comprising an augmented reality module, and a processor. The processor, when executing the code comprising the augmented reality module, is configured to perform the method below. One method includes capturing an environmental input, identifying a target device in the captured environmental input, and querying the systems management console regarding a status condition for the target device. Also provided are physical computer storage mediums including a computer program product for performing the above method.
A system for managing errors utilizing augmented reality, comprising:
A physical non-transitory computer storage medium comprising a computer program product method for managing errors utilizing augmented reality in a system including a transceiver configured to communicate with a systems management console, a capture device for capturing environmental inputs, memory storing code comprising an augmented reality module, an input device configured to receive inputs from a user, a display, and a processor coupled to the transceiver, the capture device, the memory, the input device, and the display, the physical computer storage medium comprising:

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to computing systems, and more particularly to, systems and methods for managing errors utilizing augmented reality.
2. Description of the Related Art
In order that the advantages of the invention will be readily understood, a more particular description of the invention briefly described above will be rendered by reference to specific embodiments that are illustrated in the appended drawings. Understanding that these drawings depict only typical embodiments of the invention and are not therefore to be considered to be limiting of its scope, the invention will be described and explained with additional specificity and detail through the use of the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a system for managing errors utilizing augmented reality;
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a mobile device utilized in the system of FIG. 1;
The illustrated embodiments below provide systems and methods for managing errors utilizing augmented reality. Also provided are physical computer storage mediums (e.g., an electrical connection having one or more wires, a portable computer diskette, a hard disk, a random access memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM or Flash memory), an optical fiber, a portable compact disc read-only memory (CD-ROM), an optical storage device, a magnetic storage device, or any suitable combination of the foregoing) comprising a computer program product method for managing errors utilizing augmented reality in a system (e.g., a computing system).
Turning now to the figures, FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a system 100 for managing errors utilizing augmented reality. At least in the illustrated embodiment, system 100 comprises a systems management console 150 configured to manage a system 175, which may be external to and/or included as a portion of system 100. System 100 further comprises a mobile device 200 in communication with systems management console 150.
Systems management console 150 is coupled to and configured to manage system 175. As such, systems management console 150 may be any console capable of monitoring system 175 for various statuses of operation or status of system 175. The various statuses include, but are not limited to, normal operation, an error state, a warning state, and the like status. In doing so, systems management console 150 is configured to identify any status and change in status, transmit such status to a querying device, and receive input from one or more users (via the querying device) to repair/correct/troubleshoot any identified errors and/or warnings.
