Augmented reality-based system and method providing status and control of unmanned vehicles
First Claim
1. A method of identifying and controlling a vehicle located within an environment comprising the steps of:
- receiving information from one or more sensors coupled to the vehicle, where the information includes sensor location information and status information about the vehicle;
obtaining viewpoint information corresponding to a real-time view of said environment;
generating graphics using said sensor location information and viewpoint information, wherein the graphics include visual representations of the status information and controls;
displaying the generated graphics on a display such that the graphics are superimposed on the real-time view, wherein the graphics appear attached to the vehicle; and
activating a displayed control.

Abstract
An augmented reality system identifies and controls a vehicle located within an environment. A tracking system obtains viewpoint information corresponding to a real-time view of the environment. A processing system receives information from one or more sensors. Information includes sensor location information and status information about the vehicle. Processing system generates graphics using said sensor location information and said viewpoint information. Graphics include visual representations of said status information and controls. A display displays the generated graphics such that the graphics are superimposed on the real-time view. The graphics appear attached to the vehicle. An interaction device activates a displayed control.
