This invention describes a system where a user wears augmented reality glasses that can identify a component they are looking at. The glasses capture an image of the component, which is then analyzed and matched against a database to identify it. Once identified, the system checks supplier inventory for the part and provides an estimated delivery time, potentially sorting suppliers by a specific order.
Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of advanced computer vision and more accessible AR development platforms. The core image recognition and database matching are significantly easier to implement now.
