Augmented reality systems and methods utilizing reflections

This invention describes augmented reality glasses that can detect when you are looking at your own reflection. When it does, it overlays digital content directly onto your reflection, making it seem as if your appearance is modified, perhaps showing you with different clothes or hairstyles. The system uses a specialized display with multiple layers to create images that appear at different depths.

Why it matters: Filed when compact, multi-depth AR displays were still nascent. Advances in optical waveguide manufacturing and mobile processing power now make such wearable devices more feasible and performant for real-time reflection augmentation.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedCustom optical waveguides, computer vision, real-time rendering
