System and method for presenting true product dimensions within an augmented real-world setting

An apparatus for presenting a representation of an augmented real-world setting, the apparatus comprising:

• an image capture device configured to capture a plurality of images of a real-world setting;
• a display device configured to display the augmented real-world setting;
• a processor coupled to the image capture device and the display device, wherein the processor is configured to:
• analyze one or more real-world objects within the plurality of images of the real-world setting;
• receive information pertaining to a real-world product, wherein the information is indicative of first physical dimensions of the real-world product during a first mode of operation and second physical dimensions of the real-world product during a second mode of operation;
• overlay an AR object depicting the real-world product during the first mode of operation, and having the first physical dimensions, within at least one of the plurality of images of the real-world setting based at least in part on the analyzing step;
• and
• display, via the display device, additional information pertaining to the real-world product during the second mode of operation, and having the second physical dimensions, within at least one of the plurality of images of the real-world setting.
