2 . The machine of claim 1 , wherein the viewing device comprises:

a processor having an augmented reality application, the augmented reality application having:

a virtual user interface rendering module configured to generate directions to the machine using the tracking data in the display of the viewing device.

3 . The machine of claim 2 , wherein the augmented reality application is configured to receive the broadcast from the machine, the broadcast received after an authentication of the viewing device with a server coupled to the machine.

4 . The machine of claim 1 , wherein the status includes a presence, an operating status, and operating features of the machine.

5 . The machine of claim 1 , wherein the default virtual user interface includes a virtual user interface defined by the machine.

6 . The machine of claim 1 , wherein the default virtual user interface is modified based on the status of the machine.

7 . The machine of claim 1 , wherein the visualization of the default virtual user interface is generated in relation to a location of the machine relative to the viewing device.

8 . The machine of claim 1 , wherein the tracking data includes an identification of a physical location, a shape, or a physical identifier of the machine.

9 . The machine of claim 1 , wherein the machine determines a location of the viewing device related to the machine, the tracking data relative to the location of the viewing device.

10 . The machine of claim 1 , wherein the virtual user interface comprises a menu of information identifying the machine, interactive virtual functions associated with functions of the machine,

wherein the viewing device comprises:

a physical object identifier module configured to generate identifiers of the machine comprising feature points of the machine,

wherein the tracking data comprise a location of the machine, a location of the viewing device relative to the machine, an orientation of the viewing device, and a distance between the location of the viewing device and the location of the machine.

11 . A method comprising:

generating a default virtual user interface associated with a machine;

broadcasting a status of the machine, the default virtual user interface associated with the machine, and tracking data related to the machine to a viewing device authenticated with the machine and in proximity to the machine; and

rendering a visualization of the status of the machine object and the default virtual user interface in a display of the viewing device.

12 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

generating directions to the machine using the tracking data in the display of the viewing device.

13 . The method of claim 12 , further comprising:

broadcasting to the viewing device after an authentication of the viewing device with a server coupled to the machine.

14 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the status includes a presence, an operating status, and operating features of the machine.

15 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the default virtual user interface includes a virtual user interface defined by the machine and modified based on the status of the machine.

16 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the visualization of the default virtual user interface is generated in relation to a location of the machine relative to the viewing device.

17 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the tracking data includes an identification of a physical location, a shape, or a physical identifier of the machine.

18 . The method of claim 11 , further comprising:

determining a location of the viewing device related to the machine, the tracking data relative to the location of the viewing device.

19 . The method of claim 11 , wherein the virtual user interface comprises a menu of information identifying the machine, and interactive virtual functions associated with functions of the machine,

wherein the viewing device comprises:

a physical object identifier module configured to generate identifiers of the machine comprising feature points of the machine,

wherein the tracking data comprise a location of the machine, a location of the viewing device relative to the machine, an orientation of the viewing device, and a distance between the location of the viewing device and the location of the machine.

20 . A non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

generating a default virtual user interface associated with a machine;

broadcasting a status of the machine, the default virtual user interface associated with the machine, and tracking data related to the machine to a viewing device authenticated with the machine and in proximity to the machine; and
