AR Token Metadata Segmentation and Automation

The patent segments the data storage function by separating metadata storage from the distributed ledger. The ledger only stores token identifiers and ownership records, while a separate centralized database stores the large metadata files. This segmentation reduces the data load on the ledger, minimizing processing resources and energy consumption while maintaining security and verification capabilities.

The patent extracts the metadata storage function from the distributed ledger system. Large metadata files containing token information are stored in a separate centralized database, while only essential ownership records remain on the ledger. This extraction reduces the computational burden on ledger nodes, lowering energy consumption while preserving the integrity of ownership verification.

The patent replaces the manual mechanical process of data entry with an automated computational system. A token generation module automatically creates tokens by retrieving data from arrays and generating corresponding metadata files and physical tokens. This substitution dramatically increases productivity while maintaining accuracy through systematic automated processes.

The system enables self-service token creation through automated processes that generate tokens without human intervention. The token generation module automatically populates token data from predefined arrays, creates metadata files, and produces physical tokens, eliminating the need for manual data entry while ensuring consistency and accuracy across all tokens.

The patent uses copying to create virtual representations of physical tokens in a digital environment. The augmented reality module generates virtual copies of physical tokens that users can interact with remotely, allowing multiple users to engage with the same token simultaneously. This copying approach enables multi-user interaction without requiring complex physical infrastructure at each user location.

The patent introduces an augmented reality module as an intermediary between physical tokens and users. This module captures images of physical tokens, generates virtual representations, and displays them through mobile devices, creating a bridge that enables remote multi-user interaction. The intermediary simplifies the system architecture by handling the complexity of virtualization centrally while maintaining simple user interfaces.
