Private DNS Mechanism for AR Privacy and Battery Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current network communication systems face challenges in preserving privacy, particularly through DNS requests, TLS SNI leaks, and device-to-device (D2D) relaying, which can lead to resource inefficiencies and safety concerns, especially in augmented reality applications.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a private DNS mechanism that dynamically adjusts privacy levels based on user preferences and enterprise policies, using security components to enforce HTTPS, ESNI, and VPN usage, while managing device resources and alerting users to their surroundings in augmented reality scenarios.

1Area of stationary object
If D2D relaying is enabled to extend 5G connectivity coverage, then network coverage and connectivity are improved, but device battery consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts D2D relaying participation based on real-time conditions. The device controller monitors network requirements, device battery status, and user preferences to dynamically enable or disable relaying functionality, allowing the system to adapt between maximizing coverage and conserving energy based on current operational context
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes operational parameters by adjusting the relaying participation level based on user preferences and enterprise policies. Users can configure preference levels (e.g., from always participating to never participating) that directly control the relaying behavior, effectively changing the system's energy consumption profile while maintaining network functionality
2Loss of information
If private DNS mechanisms are implemented to preserve privacy, then privacy protection is improved, but device resource consumption increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system applies different privacy protection mechanisms selectively based on the specific DNS request characteristics. Rather than uniformly applying resource-intensive encryption to all DNS traffic, the system analyzes each request and applies appropriate privacy measures only where necessary, optimizing the balance between privacy protection and resource consumption
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements privacy protection at the appropriate level of intensity based on user preferences and policy requirements. Enterprise policies can specify the degree of privacy protection needed, allowing the system to apply partial encryption or full ESNI protection depending on the sensitivity requirements, avoiding unnecessary resource expenditure on excessive protection

AI summary
Methods and systems provide for augmenting images and displayed objects using extended reality (XR) images. Image data may be received that includes real-world image data displayed on a display of the client device, which is monitored by a guide software component, and XR images. A person may be identified from the real-world image data, and, in response to identifying the person, stored information may be retrieved from a record associated with the identified person in a database in communication with the client device. The guide software component may then modify the XR images in response to identifying the person to include the retrieved information associated with the identified person. Additional XR images may be used to provide informative content at spatial anchor locations within the real-world image data.
