AUGMENTED REALITY PLATFORM AND METHOD USING LOGO RECOGNITION
First Claim
1. A distributed augmented reality platform which interacts between a mobile device and a server, comprising:
- an image recognition application located on the mobile device which receives a live, real-time image imaged by an imaging component of the mobile device, and which converts the image into coordinates;
a client application located on the mobile device which receives the coordinates from the image recognition application, and which transmits a data packet or series of packets including the coordinates;
a server application located on the server which receives the transmission of the data packet from the client application, determines content to be provided to the mobile device based on the coordinates, and sends the content or a link thereto to the mobile device.

Abstract
An augmented reality platform is provided which interacts between a mobile device and a server via a communication network. The augmented reality platform includes an image recognition application located on the mobile device which receives a live, real-time image and converts the image into coordinates, and a client application located on the mobile device which transmits a data packet including the coordinates. A server application provided on the server receives the data packet from the client application, identifies a logo included in the live, real-time image, and sends content or a link thereto to the mobile device in accordance with the logo. Alternatively, the identification of the logo may occur internally—without the assistance of the server. The client application on the mobile device processes the content or the link thereto and forms an augmented reality image on a display of the mobile device based on the live, real-time image and the content.
