Handcrafted augmented reality effort evidence
Augmented reality (AR) systems, devices, media, and methods are described for capturing and presenting effort put into generating a handcrafted AR experience. AR object generation data is captured during the generation of a handcrafted AR object. The AR object generation data is then processed to generate proof of effort data for inclusion with the handcrafted AR object. Examples of proof of effort include a time lapse view of the steps taken during generation of the AR object and statistics such as total time spent, number of images or songs considered for selection, number of actions implemented, etc.
