Personalized AR User Rendering With Permission-Based Access
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing augmented reality systems lack the ability to personalize and manage virtual content presentations dynamically based on user interactions and permissions, limiting the flexibility and privacy of user experiences.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for generating and managing personalized augmented renderings of users in an augmented reality environment, using computer-readable instructions to process user inputs, facial recognition, and subscription-based access control to dynamically render and superimpose virtual content based on user interactions and permissions.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If augmented reality systems present virtual content to users, then the user experience is enhanced, but user privacy and control over personal information are compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments virtual content into multiple layers with different privacy levels. Sensitive personal information is separated from general information, allowing users to selectively share only certain aspects of their augmented rendering with others while maintaining privacy control over other segments.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces permission management systems and subscription mechanisms as intermediaries between users and their virtual content. These intermediaries enable controlled access where users can grant or deny access to their augmented renderings on a case-by-case basis, preventing direct exposure of personal information.
2Adaptability or versatility
If augmented reality systems allow users to customize their appearance, then user experience is enhanced, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic customization where users can adjust parameters of their augmented rendering in real-time. The system allows users to modify appearance characteristics, visibility settings, and interaction permissions dynamically, adapting the virtual representation to user preferences without requiring complete system redesign.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes parameter-based control where customization is achieved by adjusting specific parameters of the augmented rendering rather than redesigning the entire system. Users can modify parameters such as visibility range, interaction permissions, and appearance characteristics, simplifying the complexity management through parameterized control.
3Ease of operation
If augmented reality systems enable access to other users' virtual content, then social interaction is enhanced, but security and permission management become more difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a universal permission management system that handles multiple types of access requests through a single framework. The same permission infrastructure manages both subscription-based access and direct user grants, reducing the need for separate complex management systems for different interaction types.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent incorporates feedback mechanisms where users are notified when their virtual content is accessed or when access requests are made. This feedback loop enables users to monitor and control access to their augmented renderings, maintaining security while enabling social interaction through transparent permission management.

AI summary
Systems and methods for generating and facilitating access to a personalized augmented rendering of a user to be presented in an augmented reality environment are discussed herein. The augmented rendering of a user may be personalized by the user to comprise a desired representation of the user in an augmented reality environment. When a second user is detected within the field of view of a first user, the second user may be identified and virtual content (e.g., an augmented rendering) for the second user may be obtained. The virtual content obtained may differ based on one or more subscriptions of the first user and/or permissions associated with the virtual content of the second user. The virtual content obtained may be rendered and appear superimposed over or in conjunction with a view of the second in the augmented reality environment.
