    Abstract: An olfactory sticker used in chats between electronic devices to make messaging more immersive, personalized, and authentic by integrating olfactory information with traditional text-based formats and AR messaging. Olfactory stickers are used to indicate to a recipient that a message includes olfactory information. The olfactory sticker illustrates a graphical representation of a particular scent that can be sent and received via a chat or an AR message. Olfactory stickers provide the recipient control of accessing the transmitted scent at a desired time. This is particularly useful since certain olfactory information, i.e., scents, can be very direct and intrusive. Olfactory stickers are activated (i.e., release their scent) when they are tapped or rubbed by the recipient.

    Abstract: A system monitors a user environment via one or more sensors included in a computing device and detects, via a trigger, that event data is stored in a data store based on the monitoring. The system further detects one or more participants in the event data and invites the one or more participants to share an augmented reality event data and/or to a virtual reality event data. The system also creates, based on the event data, an augmented reality event data and/or a virtual reality event data, and presents the augmented reality event data and/or the virtual reality event data to the one or more participants in a synchronous mode and/or in an asynchronous mode, via the computing device.

    Abstract: Systems and methods directed to generating an interactive graphical marker that includes a first region with a first indicator and a second region with a second indicator, the second region being around a circumference of the first region. The systems and methods are also directed to monitoring an animation of the interactive graphical marker to detect when the first indicator and the second indicator are aligned at a predetermined angle of rotation, and in response to detecting that the first indicator and the second indicator are aligned, initiating an interactive game application on a second computing device and a third computing device.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, method, and user interface to facilitate a camera sharing session between two or more users. A camera sharing session is initiated based on session configuration information comprising a user identifier of a user permitted to control image capturing at a camera communicatively coupled to a first device. A trigger request is received from the second device and in response, an image capture, which results in at least one image, is triggered at the camera and the image is transmitted to the second device.

    Abstract: A server machine modifies an augmented reality (AR) object in response to fulfillment of a condition. The machine provides, to a user device, object data that defines the AR object. The object data specifies a physical geolocation of the AR object, a presentation attribute of the AR object, a conditional modification program, and a trigger condition for execution of the conditional modification program. The object data causes the user device to present the AR object with a first appearance, located at the physical geolocation. The machine detects fulfillment of the trigger condition, and in response, the machine executes the conditional modification program. This modifies the object data by modifying the presentation attribute. The machine provides, to the user device, the modified object data, which causes the user device to present the AR object with a second appearance based on the modified presentation attribute.
