VIRTUAL DISPLAY DEVICE FOR AN INTERACTIVE MERCHANT SALES ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- an input device for receiving a request to display an object in a merchant environment to a first user;
a virtual display output device for projecting a first virtual image of the object for display to the first user in a user environment;
an input/output (i/o) interface in communication with the at least one device and the virtual display output device;
a non-transitory memory storing a virtual projection module, the first virtual image of the at least one object in the merchant environment, and the request to display the object;
at least one hardware processor in communication with the non-transitory memory for executing the virtual projection module to access the first virtual image of the object and utilize the virtual display output device to project the first virtual image for display in the user environment; and
a communication module in connection with the i/o interface and the non-transitory memory that communicates the request to a service provider, receives the first virtual image of the object, and stores the first virtual image to the non-transitory memory.

Abstract
There is provided systems and method for a virtual display device for an interactive merchant sales environment. A device, such as a communication device, may allow a user to view virtual images of items in a user environment so that a user may view what their potential purchase may look like when placed into the user environment. The user environment may include a residential room, an office, a car interior, or other location where a user may place purchased items. The user may submit a request to view an item in the user environment to the device, which may communicate the request to a merchant or a service provider. The virtual image may correspond to digital image(s) of an item used to present a three dimensional virtual image of the item in the user environment. The device may receive the virtual image(s) and display them to the user.

20. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising executable modules which, in response to execution by a computer system, cause the computer system to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving, via an input device of a communication device, a request to display an image of an item in a user environment using a virtual display module; transmitting, via a communication module of the communication device, the request to a merchant offering the item for sale; receiving, via the communication module, a three dimensional digital image of the item from the merchant, projection, via an output display device of the communication device, the three dimensional digital image in the user environment.
