Recording remote expert sessions
A server receives, from a first display device of a first user, first content data, first sensor data, and a request for assistance identifying a context of the first display device. The server identifies a second display device of a second user based on the context of the first display device. The server receives second content data and second sensor data from the second display device. The first content data is synchronized with the second content data based on the first and second sensor data. Playback parameters are formed based on the context of the first display device. An enhanced playback session is generated using the synchronized first and second content data in response to determining that the first sensor data meet the playback parameters. The enhanced playback session is communicated to the first display device.

displaying the manipulation of the virtual objects at the first display device.
11. A method comprising:
receiving, from a first display device of a first user, first content data, first sensor data, and a request for assistance that identifies a context of the first display device;
identifying a second display device of a second user based on the context of the first display device;
providing the first content data and the first sensor data to the second display device;
receiving second content data and second sensor data from the second display device, the second content data including modifications to the first content data;
synchronizing the first content data with the second content data based on the first and second sensor data;
forming playback parameters based on the context of the first display device;
receiving, from a third display device of a third user, third content data, third sensor data, and a context of the third display device;
generating, using one or more hardware processor of a server, an enhanced playback session using the synchronized first and second content data in response to determining that the third sensor data and the context of the third display device meet the playback parameters; and
communicating the enhanced playback session to the third display device, the enhanced playback session being rendered at the third display device.
12. The method of claim 11 , further comprises:
storing the enhanced playback session, the playback parameters, the first and second content data, and the first and second sensor data in a storage device of the server,
wherein the first or second display device comprises a head mounted device (HMD) including an augmented reality (AR) application, the AR application configured to display the enhanced playback session in a display of the first or second display device.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the context of the first display device is based on at least one of the first sensor data, a task of the user, an identity of the first user, and a time parameter.
14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first content data of the first display device and the second content data of the second display device comprise at least one of video data, image data, audio data, graphic data, and three-dimensional model data.
15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the first sensor data of the first display device and the second sensor data of the second display device comprise at least one of geographic data, inertia data, and orientation data.
16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the second content data of the second display device comprise at least one of annotation data related to the first content data, and manipulation data related to the second user manipulating a three-dimensional model of a physical object identified in the first content data.
