Interactive presentation system with NFC module, magnetic mounting and augmented reality interface for geometrically variable display objects

Abstract

Interactive presentation system consisting of a physical display object (1) with integrated NFC unit (2), magnetic holding element (3) and a digital application (4), characterized in that the display object is optionally round, rectangular, square or polygonal and generates an augmented reality display of digital content (5) over the object after reading the NFC tag.

Description

1. Title of the invention

[0001] Interactive presentation system with NFC module, magnetic mounting and augmented reality interface for geometrically variable display objects 2. Technical field

[0002] The invention relates to the field of interactive presentation and information systems, in particular devices for linking physical objects of different geometries with digital content via near field communication (NFC) and augmented reality (AR) displays. 3. State of the art

[0003] NFC tags, which retrieve digital information when read by a smartphone, are well-known, as are magnetic mounts for round or square plate objects. AR applications, which overlay digital content onto camera images, are also familiar.

[0004] A system that combines different geometric display objects (round, rectangular, square or polygonal) with integrated NFC functionality and uses magnetic fixation as a spatial reference for AR displays is not yet known. 4. Object of the invention

[0005] The object of the invention is to provide an energy-independent, versatile and user-friendly system that: 1. uses physical objects of various shapes (e.g. round, square, rectangular) as carriers of digital content, 2. enables precise magnetic fixation for reproducible spatial orientation, 3. supports AR recognition of different geometries, 4. and a digital interaction or purchase option for displayed content is allowed (e.g. trading cards, art motifs, flashcards). 5. Solution to the problem (presentation of the invention)

[0006] The task is solved using an interactive presentation system consisting of: 1. a physical display object (1) with: ◯ flat support structure, the shape of which is optionally round, square, rectangular or polygonal, ◯ integrated passive NFC tag (2), ◯ Front side with neutral or graphic design, ◯ Back side with magnetic retaining element (3); 2. a magnetic stand (4) or a holding device that fixes the display object in a defined position and enables repeatable alignment for AR recognition; 3. a mobile device (5) with NFC interface and camera which, when reading the NFC tag, opens a web or app-based application (6) which recognizes the geometry of the physical object and displays digital content (7) in augmented reality; 4. a user interface (8) that allows the user to switch between multiple digital motifs or layers of information by swiping or touching gestures; 5. an interaction interface (9) which optionally provides an ordering or purchasing option for the displayed content, such as digital artworks, trading cards or learning materials. 6. Advantages of the invention • Supports various object shapes, which significantly increases the design and functional diversity in the AR field. • Reproducible magnetic alignment for stable AR anchoring. • Energy-independent operation thanks to passive NFC technology. • Expandable for art, education, exhibition or sales applications. • Unified digital interface (browser or app) on commercially available smartphones or tablets. 7. Example of implementation

[0007] A rectangular display object (e.g., a trading card 6 x 9 cm) contains an integrated NFC tag. A magnetic adhesive surface on the back secures the object to a metallic presentation base.

[0008] When a smartphone approaches, a web AR page automatically opens, which recognizes the object and displays a digital 3D image, a video, or additional information.

[0009] Alternatively, a square object with an artistic motif can be used to digitally reconstruct a complete painting.

[0010] The user interface allows the user to view different digital versions or order the design directly. 8.
