1. A method for generating augmented reality, comprising:

  • capturing a first image in a viewing range of a first augmented reality device in real time via a camera of the first augmented reality device, and synchronizing the first image to a second augmented reality device, the first augmented reality device comprising a first memory having stored therein a first set of instructions and a first processor for executing the first set of instructions to provide an augmented reality image to a first user via a first display, and the second augmented reality device comprising a second memory having stored therein a second set of instructions and a second processor for executing the second set of instructions to provide an augmented reality image to a second user via a second display;

    receiving a second image from the second augmented reality device, the second image being an image returned in real time by the second augmented reality device after augmenting the first image by the second augmented reality device;

    determining whether the second image and the first image are similar;

    generating the augmented reality image to the first display at the first augmented reality device based on the first image alone when determining that the second image and the first image are similar;

    when determining that the second image and the first image are not similar;

    identifying a first difference image of the second image relative to the first image;

    converting the first difference image to a second difference image based on a viewing angle of the first augmented reality device; and

    superimposing the second difference image onto the first image; and

    displaying the augmented reality image in the first user in the first display of the first augmented reality device.
