1. A method for identifying items comprising:
- receiving, by a computer system, a particular RFID signal identifying that a particular attribute is associated with a particular item placed proximate to the RFID tag emitting the particular RFID signal, wherein the particular RFID signal is identified from among a plurality of RFID signals, wherein a selection of the plurality of RFID signals are each associated with a separate attribute from among a plurality of attributes; and
displaying, by the computer system, a visual representation depicting that the particular item is associated with the particular attribute by;
responsive to determining that the particular attribute is selected by a user in a selection of user attribute preferences, identifying a location of the RFID tag emitting the RFID signal;
selecting an overlay image for the particular attribute;
accessing an image of a current view captured by an image capture device;
identifying the location of the RFID tag within the current view; and
applying the selected overlay image to the location within an overlay interface.

5. A system for identifying items comprising:
-
a computer system operative to receive a particular RFID signal identifying that a particular attribute is associated with a particular item placed proximate to the RFID tag emitting the particular RFID signal, wherein the particular RFID signal is identified from among a plurality of RFID signals, wherein a selection of the plurality of RFID signals are each associated with a separate attribute from among a plurality of attributes; and the computer system operative to display a visual representation depicting that the particular item is associated with the particular attribute, further comprising; the computer system, responsive to determining that the particular attribute is selected by a user in a selection of user attribute preferences, operative to identify a location of the RFID tag emitting the RFID signal; the computer system operative to select an overlay image for the particular attribute; the computer system operative to access an image of a current view captured by an image capture device; the computer system operative to identify the location of the RFID tag within the current view; and the computer system operative to apply the selected overlay image to the location within an overlay interface. - View Dependent Claims (6)
