Shared real-time content editing activated by an image
Systems and methods for instantiating collaboration interfaces via object recognition are disclosed. An object recognition engine communicatively coupled to a database and an electronic device receives sensor data related to an object and identifies an object characteristic. A component is selected having criteria satisfied by the object characteristic and a collaboration interface is instantiated on the electronic device. This can allow a user to edit content related to an object. A substantially identical collaboration interface can be instantiated on a second electronic device to allow collaboration among user with respect to content related to the object.
1. A collaborative augmented reality (AR) content management system comprising:
at least one computer readable, non-transitory memory storing software instructions;
at least one collaboration database capable of storing AR-related components indexed at least by location characteristics; and
at least one processor coupled with the memory and with the collaboration database and, upon execution of the software instructions, performs the operations of:
determining at least one object characteristic including an object location of at least one recognizable object associated with a first device location;
receiving a selected AR-related component from a user and associated with the at least one recognizable object, the AR-related component comprising a reconciliation control over the at least one recognizable object, wherein the reconciliation control is based on a priority;
storing the selected AR-related component in the collaboration database according to at least the object location as a relevant AR-related component;
enabling a second device to obtain the relevant AR-related component from the collaboration database upon satisfaction of selection criteria satisfied by a second device location of the second device and based on the object location; and
enabling the second device to superimpose the relevant AR-related component on a display of the second device according to the reconciliation control.

12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the object location is based at least in part on global positioning system data.
13. The system of claim 1 , wherein the AR-related component comprises a conflicting command relative to other AR-related components related to the at least one recognizable object at the object location.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the operations further include reconciling the conflicting command according to reconciliation rules comprising the reconciliation control.
15. The system of claim 14 , wherein the reconciliation rules are based on the priority.
16. The system of claim 1 , wherein the AR-related component comprises a collaboration interface component.
17. The system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further include generating an alert on the first device or the second device regarding collaboration with respect to content related to the at least one recognizable object.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the alert indicates a conflict associated with the collaboration interface component.
19. The system of claim 17 , wherein the alert comprises a text message.
