Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for the generation of augmented reality (AR) scenery for a physical item. The AR scenery allows a customer to interact with the physical item in the real-world, while also allowing the customer to view the physical item in a virtual setting that may be tailored to the customer and/or to the physical item. According to an embodiment, an AR scene is generated for a physical item. The AR scene includes computer-generated scenery and at least a portion of an image of the physical item, where the computer-generated scenery is based on information associated with the user and/or the physical item. The AR scene is then displayed on a device.

Abstract: A merchant may operate a retail store that users are able to visit in person in order to view and purchase products. When a user visits the store, the user might not know where a desired product (“target product”) is located. Computer technology may help direct the user to the target product in real-time. In some embodiments, a model of passable areas and the location of products in the retail store may be determined, e.g. by a merchant device. In some embodiments, when the user visits the retail store, a computer generates a product recommendation, e.g. based on user-specific information, and a route in the retail store is determined for the user. In some embodiments, the route in the retail store may be determined using the model based on the target product, the user's location in the store, and one or more recommended products.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for augmenting a customer image with at least one virtual object. One or more customer images depicting a customer environment are received from a customer computing device and 3D feature data for the customer images is determined. A virtual object is determined which corresponds to a desired merchant item. A positioning signal is received which corresponds to a desired location of virtual object in the customer environment, and a corresponding first location in each customer image at which to overlay the virtual object using the positioning signal is determined. An appropriate size and orientation of the virtual object is determined for each customer image based on corresponding 3D feature data, causing an overlay of an appropriately sized and oriented virtual object at the corresponding first location in customer images.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates, in part, to spatially aware media that includes three-dimensional (3D) spatial information pertaining to a real-world space. The spatially aware media may map this 3D spatial information to media such as an image, for example, to provide 3D spatial context for the media. This may allow users to more flexibly and efficiently interact with virtual content in real-world spaces that are relevant to them. According to one embodiment, spatially aware media is augmented to provide an image of a real-world space overlaid with a render of a 3D model defined relative to the 3D spatial features of the real-world space. Before augmenting the spatially aware media, a recommended position for the 3D model relative to the 3D spatial features of the real-world space may be determined based on the 3D model and/or on the spatially aware media.

Abstract: Methods and systems for packaging a product offering of product items associated with a merchant account. A product packaging model is associated with a kit of product items having a selected packaging option. During assembly, one or more images of the kit are captured and image features are detected and compared to parameters specified in the product packaging model. An error notification is output if a deviation is detected between the detected image features and the parameters prescribed by the product packaging model.
