Abstract

Methods and Systems are disclosed for displaying objects between disparate devices connected to an electronic network. One method comprises detecting, by a multimedia device connected to an electronic network, an object in a multimedia stream; determining an identifier associated with the detected object; detecting a mobile device connected to the electronic network, the mobile device being a device other than the multimedia device; and generating a display of the detected object at the detected mobile device.

Claims (38)

1. A computer-implemented method for displaying objects between disparate devices connected to an electronic network, comprising:

receiving, at a mobile device, an identifier associated with an object, wherein the object is derived from a multimedia stream on a multimedia device, and wherein the identifier is determined based on object detection mechanisms including a machine learning model trained using a convolutional neural network;

receiving, from a server, content associated with the identifier, wherein the content includes one or more images of the object, information associated with the object, and other objects related to the object; and

generating a display, at the mobile device, comprising the received content and a depiction of the object in an augmented reality environment, wherein a selection of a transaction interface within the augmented reality environment causes a superimposing of the received content adjacent to the depicted object, and wherein size, orientation, and placement of the superimposed received content and the depicted object are adjusted based on sensor data from one or more sensors of the mobile device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifier associated with the object is received from the multimedia device associated with the multimedia stream, the multimedia device being a device other than the mobile device.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

detecting, at the mobile device, the electronic network connected to the multimedia device; and

receiving the identifier from the multimedia device, via the electronic network.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the multimedia device comprises a television set or speaker, and wherein the identifier includes a name or product type associated with the object.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining the identifier further based on one or more of voice recognition, sound recognition, a library of predetermined objects, a sponsored object listing, previous transaction history associated with a user, transaction history associated with the mobile device, or a combination thereof.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

automatically detecting, via the one or more sensors of the mobile device, a pre-set combinations of gestures and/or biometric data to perform payment authentication for a purchase of the object.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, at the mobile device, payment information from a user associated with the mobile device; and

completing a payment transaction of the object, based on the received payment information.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the information associated with the object comprises object specification, weight, price, delivery information, promotional code(s), user review(s), size information, use information, material composition, nutritional information, dosage, serving size, ingredient information, warnings, warranty information, or a combination thereof.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the augmented reality environment includes a foldable user history menu comprising icons of previously collected or purchased items by a user, and wherein the foldable user history menu is superimposed adjacent to the depicted object.

10. A system for displaying an augmented reality virtual object on a multimedia device, comprising:

one or more processors;

a data storage comprising instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform a method comprising:

receiving, at a mobile device, an identifier associated with an object, wherein the object is derived from a multimedia stream on the multimedia device, and wherein the identifier is determined based on object detection mechanisms including a machine learning model trained using a convolutional neural network;

receiving, from a server, content associated with the identifier, wherein the content includes one or more images of the object, information associated with the object, and other objects related to the object; and

generating, at the mobile device, a display comprising the received content and a depiction of the object in an augmented reality environment, wherein a selection of a transaction interface within the augmented reality environment causes a superimposing of the received content adjacent to the depicted object, and wherein size, orientation, and placement of the superimposed received content and the depicted object are adjusted based on sensor data from one or more sensors of the mobile device.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the identifier associated with the object is received from the multimedia device associated with the multimedia stream, the multimedia device being a device other than the mobile device.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the method further comprises:

detecting, at the mobile device, an electronic network connected to the multimedia device; and

receiving the identifier from the multimedia device, via the electronic network.

13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the multimedia device comprises a television set or speaker, and wherein the identifier includes a name or product type associated with the object.

14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the method further comprises:

determining the identifier further based on one or more of voice recognition, sound recognition, a library of predetermined objects, a sponsored object listing, previous transaction history associated with a user, transaction history associated with the mobile device, or a combination thereof.

15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the method further comprises:

automatically detecting, via the one or more sensors of the mobile device, a pre-set combinations of gestures and/or biometric data to perform payment authentication for a purchase of the object.

16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the method further comprises:

receiving, at the mobile device, payment information from a user associated with the mobile device; and

completing a payment transaction of the object, based on the received payment information.

17. The system of claim 10 , wherein the information associated with the object comprises object specification, weight, price, delivery information, promotional code(s), user review(s), size information, use information, material composition, nutritional information, dosage, serving size, ingredient information, warnings, warranty information, or a combination thereof.

18. The method of claim 9 , wherein the foldable user history menu is automatically presented within the augmented reality environment for a pre-determined time period to confirm a selection of the object, the other objects related to the object, or a combination thereof.
