Augmented Reality Data Propagation for Low-Configuration Terminals
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current augmented reality (AR) technology requires high-terminal configuration, including a camera and recognition capability, limiting its application to terminals with lower specifications, which prevents users from interacting with virtual world data.
Innovation Solution
A method and system for processing and propagating AR data, allowing terminals with lower configurations to receive and display AR data by using an acquisition terminal with a camera and recognition capability to generate AR data, which can then be shared with other terminals, enabling interaction and updating of virtual world data.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If AR technology is implemented on terminals with high configuration (camera and recognition capability), then AR functionality is achieved, but terminal complexity and hardware requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the AR system into two functional segments: an acquisition terminal that performs complex AR recognition and data generation, and a display terminal that simply receives and displays AR data. This segmentation allows low-configuration terminals to participate in AR interactions by relying on the acquisition terminal's processing capabilities.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces AR data as an intermediary carrier that transfers recognition results from the acquisition terminal to the display terminal. This intermediary mechanism enables low-configuration terminals to access AR functionality without needing built-in recognition capabilities.
2Measurement precision
If AR recognition and processing is performed locally on each terminal, then recognition accuracy is maintained, but computational resource requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the recognition and processing functions into a single acquisition terminal, consolidating computational resources. This allows one terminal to perform accurate AR recognition while other terminals simply display the pre-processed AR data, reducing overall computational resource consumption across the system.
3Adaptability or versatility
If AR data is propagated through multiple terminals, then accessibility to AR content is improved, but data transmission complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent designs the acquisition terminal to serve multiple functions: it acts as both an AR recognition device and a data distribution center. The same terminal can propagate AR data to multiple display terminals simultaneously, enabling one terminal to serve multiple purposes and reducing overall system complexity.

AI summary
This application relates to a method of processing augmented reality (AR) data at a terminal, and a storage medium, and the AR data propagation method includes: receiving AR data, the AR data carrying AR recognition data and being generated by a source terminal; displaying the AR data according to the AR recognition data; in response to receiving a user instruction, updating the AR data according to the user instruction; and sharing the updated AR data with a target terminal. With the solutions provided in this application, users can implement AR interactions with virtual world data by using a terminal with a relatively low configuration.
