1. A system that facilitates augmenting reality, comprising:
- at least one processor;
at least one computer-readable storage media storing instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, implement;
an information gathering component having a reality monitor component that gathers real-world data of at least one real-world object and a query component that obtains, via a communications network, virtual-world data based at least in part on a query related to the at least one real-world object; and
an interface component configured to receive at least a portion of the gathered real-world data and at least a portion of the virtual-world data, the interface component having a consolidation component that aggregates the gathered real-world data and the virtual-world data into aggregated data, the interface component establishes an augmented-reality experience in which at least a portion of the gathered real-world data is overlaid with at least a portion of the virtual-world data.

Abstract
A system (and corresponding method) that can enhance a user experience by augmenting real-world experiences with virtual world data to is provided. The augmented reality system discloses various techniques to personalize real-world experiences by overlaying or interspersing virtual capabilities (and data) with real world situations. The innovation can also filter, rank, modify or ignore virtual-world information based upon a particular real-world class, user identity or context.

14. A computer-implemented method of augmenting reality, comprising:
-
monitoring a plurality of real-world objects; gathering real-world data related to the monitored plurality of real-world objects; establishing a query related to at least one of the plurality of real-world objects; obtaining, via a communications network, virtual-world information related to at least one of the plurality of real-world objects in response to the query; aggregating the gathered real-world data and the virtual-world information into aggregated data; and establishing an augmented-reality experience in which at least a portion of the gathered real-world data is overlaid with at least a portion of the virtual-world information based at least in part on the aggregated data. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)

18. A computer-executable system comprising:
-
means for machine learning and reasoning to infer an action that a user desires to be automatically performed; means for monitoring a plurality of real-world objects related to a user; means for establishing a query related to at least one of the plurality of real-world objects; means for obtaining, via a communications network, virtual-world information related to at least one of the plurality of real-world objects in response to the query related to at least one of the plurality of real-world objects; means for aggregating at least a portion of the gathered real-world data and with at least a portion of the virtual-world information into aggregated data; and means for rendering the aggregation to a user in accordance with the inferred action, wherein at least a portion of the real-world data is overlaid with at least a portion of the virtual-world data. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
