Multi-feed context enhanced imaging
A system or method includes a platform to allow users to coordinate images captured by a separated camera with images captured by a first camera, displaying such images at real-time to a user through a user interface on the first camera or a user interface on a separate device. The separate camera is contemplated to provide a separate image feed to provide one or more augmentations to an image captured by the first camera.
1. A method of engaging a viewer in augmented reality using a first electronic device including a first camera and a display and a second electronic device including a second camera, the method comprising:
receiving, by one or more computer processors, a first image from the first camera;
identifying, by the one or more computer processors, an object associated with the first image;
receiving, by the one or more computer processors, a second image from the second camera, wherein the second camera is configured to focus on the object, and wherein the second image at least includes an infrared image;
determining, by the one or more computer processors, a context of the second image within the context of the first image; and
displaying, by the one or more computer processors, the first image, wherein the first image includes the context of the second image within the context of the first image.
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 is a superimposition of context data on the first image.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
storing, by a computer-readable storage medium, the second image and the context of the second image for a predetermined time period;
receiving, by a computer processor, a request to view the second image and the context of the second image within the predetermined time period; and
superimposing, by a computer processor, 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 storing, by the computer-readable storage medium, the superimposed second image for later retrieval.
7. The method of claim 4 , further comprising the step of storing, by the computer-readable storage medium, the context of the second image for later retrieval.
