Patent Images
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a computing device to:
- receive a user preference, the user preference selected for an individual user;
access a user identified word of a plurality of user identified words, the user identified word associated with the user preference and a color selected for the individual user;
obtain image data that includes a representation of text;
use an object recognition algorithm to determine a recognized word represented in the image data;
associate the user identified word with the recognized word;
display the recognized word emphasized by a visual color attribute, the visual color attribute matching the color associated with the user identified word; and
arrange the recognized word with respect to a plurality of recognized words, individual recognized words of the plurality of recognized words associated with individual user preferences and individual colors selected for individual users, the plurality of recognized words arranged based on the color, thereby ascertaining a group preference associated with group behavior based on the individual recognized words with respect to the plurality of recognized words.

Abstract
Various embodiments enable a computing device to perform tasks such as highlighting words in an augmented reality view that are important to a user. For example, word lists can be generated and the user, by pointing a camera of a computing device at a volume of text, can cause words from the word list within the volume of text to be highlighted in a live field of view of the camera displayed thereon. Accordingly, users can quickly identify textual information that is meaningful to them in an Augmented Reality view to aid the user in sifting through real-world text.

7. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
-
receiving a user preference, the user preference selected for an individual user; accessing a user identified word of a plurality of user identified words, the user identified word associated with user preference and a color selected for the individual user; obtaining image data that includes a representation of text; using an object recognition algorithm to determine a recognized word represented in the image data; associating the user identified word with the recognized word; displaying the recognized word emphasized by a visual color attribute, the visual color attribute matching the color associated with the user identified word; and arranging the recognized word with respect to a plurality of recognized words, individual recognized words of the plurality of recognized words associated with individual user preferences and individual colors selected for individual users, the plurality of recognized words arranged based on the color, thereby ascertaining a group preference associated with group behavior based on the individual recognized words with respect to the plurality of recognized words. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
