This invention describes a system that helps people tell the difference between real things and virtual things when they are in an immersive experience, like augmented reality. A camera watches the user and the space, and a computer figures out which objects are virtual projections. Then, a separate projector changes how these virtual objects appear, for example, by putting an overlay on them or making them lower resolution, so the user knows they are not physically present.
Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in real-time computer vision and projection mapping software. The ability to precisely detect objects and dynamically alter projected virtual elements has become much more feasible and performant since 2021.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
