Smart overview of the Invention

Techniques for merging augmented reality (AR) experiences into a cohesive environment focus on enhancing collaborative user interactions. The method involves identifying the AR experiences of two users and analyzing contextual data related to these experiences. Based on this analysis, a merged AR environment is created that integrates both users' experiences, allowing for a more immersive interaction.

Contextual Data Analysis

The system utilizes various environmental contextual data to understand how each user's AR experience is shaped. This data may include factors like location, user preferences, and system configurations. By analyzing these elements, the system can identify similarities and differences between users’ experiences, which is crucial for creating a seamless shared environment.

Enhancing Collaborative Experiences

Augmented reality technologies enable users to engage in shared experiences that blend digital content with the physical world. Features such as dynamic screen sharing and multimedia sharing are essential for facilitating these interactions. However, inconsistencies in users' AR experiences can lead to fragmented interactions, which this invention aims to resolve by creating a unified AR environment.

Improving User Interaction and Contextuality

The proposed method enhances user engagement by ensuring thematic consistency across shared experiences. By identifying commonalities in users' AR contexts, the system can facilitate richer interactions, particularly in scenarios involving commerce-based transactions like shopping or dining. This results in a more coherent and enjoyable experience for all participants.

Implementation and Technology Framework

The described techniques can be implemented through various computing systems and devices capable of executing the necessary algorithms. The technology encompasses computer program products that store machine-readable code for performing operations related to merging AR experiences. This flexibility allows for deployment across different platforms, ensuring broad accessibility for users seeking enhanced collaborative AR interactions.
