AR Camera Photo Overlay for Relevant Memory Sharing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Individuals face challenges in managing, locating, and sharing digital photographs that are of interest to both the sender and recipients due to the growing volume of digital images, making it difficult to conveniently share augmented reality experiences.
Innovation Solution
An interaction system that enables users to share augmented reality experiences by automatically detecting and presenting digital content based on various criteria, using image augmentation mechanisms to create composite images or collages with friends' photographs, and integrating networked computing environments for seamless communication and content management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If individuals manually manage and locate digital photographs in large collections, then they can share photos with friends and family, but it becomes increasingly difficult to conveniently manage, locate and share photographs that are of interest to both the sender and receivers
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically detects and presents digital content for sharing based on various criteria without requiring manual searching. The automation identifies photos of interest to both the sender and receivers, eliminating the need for manual management and location of photographs in large collections.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical searching and selection processes with automated computational systems. The system uses automation to detect and present digital content based on criteria such as shared interests, relationships, and contextual data, substituting human effort with intelligent algorithms.
2Productivity
If users share digital photographs broadly and frequently, then they can connect with friends and family, but it becomes difficult to locate and share photographs that are of mutual interest
Solution Approach 1:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms by analyzing various criteria including shared interests, relationship data, and contextual information to determine which photographs are of mutual interest. This feedback loop ensures that frequently shared photos remain relevant and meaningful to both senders and receivers.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameters of photo sharing by introducing multiple criteria for selection such as shared interests, relationship strength, and contextual relevance. These parameter changes enable the system to filter and present only those photographs that meet the criteria for mutual interest, maintaining relevance despite frequent sharing.
3Measurement precision
If the system provides detailed criteria for selecting photographs, then it can accurately identify photos of mutual interest, but the complexity of the system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the complex selection process into multiple independent criteria such as shared interests, relationship data, and contextual factors. Each criterion can be evaluated separately and combined to determine the final selection, making the overall system more manageable while maintaining high accuracy in identifying photos of mutual interest.

AI summary
In one aspect, the method includes causing presentation of a camera interface, the camera interface to display a first image captured by a camera of a computing device of a first user, causing presentation of a plurality of augmentation icons within the camera interface, each of the image augmentation icons being associated with a respective image augmentation mechanism, detecting user selection of an auxiliary augmentation icon of the plurality of image augmentation icons, the second image icon being associated with an second image augmentation mechanism, determining an second image selection criterion for an second image augmentation mechanism, selecting an second image based on the second image selection criterion, the second image being selected from a plurality of photographs associated with the first user, and overlaying the second image on the first image to generate a composite image that is presented within the camera interface.
