Augmented reality account statement
An augmented reality system enables consumers to access additional data and services when reviewing printed account statements. A built-in camera of a mobile device captures an image of the account statement. The captured image is processed to correlate the account statement to an account provider, effectively unlocking a set of customized services related to the account statement being reviewed. The mobile device displays customized services for the user to view and interact with.

correlate the processed image data to identify an institution corresponding to the account statement.
11. The augmented reality system according to claim 10 , wherein the processed image data includes statement template data.
12. The augmented reality system according to claim 11 , comprising further instructions that, when executed by the processing unit, cause the augmented reality system to:
compare the statement template data to a set of pre-existing statement templates; and
if no pre-existing statement template is found, add the statement template data to the set of pre-existing statement templates.
13. The augmented reality system according to claim 9 , wherein the image is a frame of live video acquired by the augmented reality system.
14. An augmented reality system, comprising:
a processing unit; and
system memory, the system memory including instructions that, when executed by the processing unit, cause the augmented reality system to:
