Augmented reality system for displaying venue information
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11967147B2) outlines a method involving the use of augmented reality technology to enhance the user experience at a venue. The method includes detecting the location and orientation of an augmented reality endpoint device worn by a user, identifying an entryway to an enclosed space within the device's field of view, and detecting objects within that space using wireless sensing technology. The system then modifies captured images to include these objects, creating a new visual representation of the space. This modified imagery is then presented to the user through the augmented reality device, providing a unique and interactive view of the environment.
Furthermore, the patent details additional features such as providing access credentials to users based on their reservations, displaying alphanumeric data related to the enclosed space, and presenting visual information about multiple spaces within the venue. The method also involves machine learning processes to enhance the visual experience for users, ensuring that the augmented reality content seamlessly integrates with the real-world environment. Overall, the patent showcases a sophisticated system that leverages augmented reality technology to offer users a personalized and immersive experience at venues, enhancing their interactions with the physical space through digital overlays and information.
