Abstract
Designed is a system and method for providing line of sight interaction in an AR environment between users of portable devices with the camera. The system and method uses computer-generated images to represent other system users and real or fictional objects with the precise location in 3 dimensional space. This Digital scene is overlaid onto and combined with the current real world environment as seen on the users'"'"' viewfinder. The invention is a novel system and method for allowing users to aim their portable devices and interact or communicate with the CGI images or other users of the same system, creating an augmented reality experience that is enhanced by a line of sight style communication.
