Method and apparatus for sharing augmented reality applications to multiple clients
First Claim
1. A method of interaction using augmented reality, the method comprising:
- aligning a local augmented reality (AR) view to a remote AR view of a remote user;
receiving remote annotations from the remote user;
sending local annotations registered to the local AR view to the remote user;
manipulating the local AR view with the remote annotations and the local annotations;
receiving an AR viewing position and an AR viewing angle of the remote user;
setting a local AR viewing position and a local AR viewing angle according to the received AR viewing position and the received AR viewing angle of the remote user;
locking the local AR view according to the received AR viewing position and the received AR viewing angle of the remote user; and
viewing the local AR view, remote annotations, and local annotations according to the received AR viewing position and the received AR viewing angle of the remote user,wherein the method is performed on a device chosen from a group including a tablet, a mobile phone, a laptop computer, a head-mounted display, and a virtual-reality display.

Abstract
A method of interaction using augmented reality may include aligning a local augmented reality (AR) view to a remote AR view of a remote user, receiving remote annotations from the remote user, sending local annotations registered to a local view to the remote user, and manipulating local view with remote and local annotations. The method may also include capturing a first video image using a camera, generating first augmented reality (AR) coordinates corresponding to the first video image, receiving second AR coordinates, 3D object information and second video frame from remote user, loading 3D content and instructions from a remote storage, and updating positions and existence of the received 3D object information and the loaded 3D content.

8. A method of interaction using augmented reality, the method comprising:
-
capturing a video image using an imaging device; generating augmented reality (AR) coordinates corresponding to the video image; updating a scene view according to the generated AR coordinates; loading 3D content from storage; creating new content by adding the loaded 3D content to the scene view; combining the AR coordinates, the 3D content and the scene view; transmitting combined data to remote user; transmitting a local AR viewing position and a local AR viewing angle to the remote user; and locking an AR viewing position and an AR viewing angle of the remote user according to the transmitted local AR viewing position and local AR viewing angle, wherein the method is performed on a device chosen from a group including a tablet, a mobile phone, a laptop computer, a head-mounted display, and a virtual-reality display. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
