Augmented reality creation using a real scene

This invention describes a system for adding virtual objects to a live view of the real world, as seen through a device's camera. A user selects a virtual item from a menu displayed on the screen, then uses a gesture, captured by the camera, to place that chosen item into a specific spot within the real-time camera feed. The device then displays the virtual object integrated into the real scene.

Why it matters: Filed before mobile processors and AR frameworks were mature. Modern smartphone capabilities and advanced computer vision now make real-time scene understanding and gesture recognition robust and widely accessible.

Status: ExpiredProtection ended and was never renewed
How hard to build: SpecializedSoftware logic, real-time AR rendering, gesture recognition.
