Using live feeds to produce 1st person, spatial, and real life views
A system or method includes a platform to allow users to coordinate images captured by a separated worn camera with images captured by a held camera, displaying such images at real-time to a user through a user interface on the held camera or a user interface on a separate device. The separate worn camera is contemplated to provide a separate image feed to provide one or more augmentations to an image captured by the held camera.
1. A method of engaging a viewer in augmented reality using; a first electronic device including a first camera and a display, a second electronic device including a second camera, the method comprising:
receiving a viewer interest parameter;
receiving a first image from the first camera;
identifying a visual reference falling within the viewer interest parameter;
receiving a second image from the second camera, wherein the second camera is configured to focus on the visual reference;
determining a context of the second image within the context of the first image;
displaying the first image, wherein the first image includes a superimposed interactive element;
receiving a user selection of the superimposed interactive element,
displaying the second image and the context of the second image within a context of the first image via the display of the first electronic device.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second image and the context of the second image are composited into the first image.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the contextual significance of the second image comprises a superimposition of context data on the first image.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising a memory, wherein the memory is configured to perform the steps of:
storing the second image and the context of the second image for a predetermined time period;
receiving a request to view the second image and the context of the second image within the predetermined time period; and
superimposing the second image and the context of the second image onto the first image via the display of the first electronic device.
5. The method of claim 4 , wherein superimposing the second image and the context of the second image is rendered in substantially real-time.
6. The method of claim 4 , further comprising the step of saving a superimposed image to a persistent storage medium for later retrieval.
7. The method of claim 4 , wherein the memory is a looping memory.
