Abstract

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, observing a plurality of objects viewed through a smart lens, wherein the plurality of objects are in a frame of an image viewed by the smart lens, determining an identification for an object of the plurality of objects, assigning tag information for the object based on the identification, storing the tag information for the object and the frame in which the object was observed, receiving a recall request for the object, retrieving the tag information for the object and the frame responsive to the receiving the recall request, and displaying the tag information and the frame. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claims (43)

1. A method, comprising:

generating, by a processing system comprising a processor, tag information for an observed object within a frame of an image captured by a smart lens; and

responsive to a request for an object determined to correspond to the observed object:

retrieving, by the processing system, the tag information, the frame, and content related to the observed object; and

displaying, by the processing system, the content, the tag information, and the frame.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the content comprises advertising content.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the image is included in video content recorded by the smart lens.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising obtaining, by the processing system, second tag information for the observed object from a second smart lens.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying, by the processing system, a second observed object within a second frame of a second image captured by the smart lens;

determining, by the processing system, whether advertising content exists for the second observed object; and

responsive to a determination that the advertising content exists for the second observed object, displaying, by the processing system, the advertising content.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising activating an advertising session for the second observed object.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the request corresponds to verbal input received via a microphone.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the request corresponds to a user request for a location of the observed object.

9. A device, comprising:

a processing system including a processor; and

a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations comprising:

generating tag information for an observed object within a frame of an image captured by a smart lens; and

responsive to a request for an object determined to correspond to the observed object:

retrieving the tag information, the frame, and advertising content for the observed object; and

displaying the advertising content, the tag information, and the frame.

10. The device of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise activating an advertising session for the observed object.

11. The device of claim 9 , wherein the frame comprises one of a plurality of frames of video content recorded by the smart lens.

12. The device of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise obtaining second tag information for the observed object from a second smart lens.

13. The device of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise:

identifying a second observed object within a second frame of a second image captured by the smart lens;

determining whether second advertising content exists for the second observed object; and

responsive to a determination that the second advertising content exists for the second observed object, displaying the second advertising content.

14. The device of claim 9 , wherein the request corresponds to verbal input received via a microphone.

15. The device of claim 9 , wherein the request corresponds to a user request for a location of the observed object.

16. A non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising:

generating tag information for an observed object within a frame of an image captured by a smart lens; and

responsive to a verbal request for an object determined to correspond to the observed object:

retrieving the tag information, the frame, and content related to the observed object; and

displaying the content, the tag information, and the frame.

17. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the content comprises advertising content.

18. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the request corresponds to a user request for a location of the observed object.

19. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise:

identifying a second observed object within a second frame of a second image captured by the smart lens;

determining whether advertising content exists for the second observed object; and

responsive to a determination that the advertising content exists for the second observed object, displaying the advertising content.

20. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein the operations further comprise activating an advertising session for the second observed object.
