Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A device receives an image including image data of a scale model of a vehicle, and processes the image data, with a model, to identify a make, a model, and a year represented by the scale model. The device determines augmented reality (AR) vehicle information based on the make, the model, and the year represented by the scale model of the vehicle, and provides the AR vehicle information to enable a user device to associate the AR vehicle information with the image of the scale model of the vehicle. The device receives an input associated with the AR vehicle information, and determines updated AR vehicle information based on the input associated with the AR vehicle information. The device provides the updated AR vehicle information to enable the user device to associate the updated augmented reality vehicle information with the image of the scale model of the vehicle.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: receiving, by a first device and from a second device, a captured image data of a scale model, wherein the scale model corresponds to one or more available vehicles available in an inventory and is of a smaller size than the one or more available vehicles; providing, by the first device, to the second device, and based on processing at least a portion of the image data of the scale model, vehicle information associated with the one or more available vehicles; providing, by the first device, to the second device, and based on data associated with the vehicle information received from the second device, at least one of augmented reality information or virtual reality information, wherein the at least one of the augmented reality information or the virtual reality information indicates one or more options available for an available vehicle of the one or more available vehicles; and causing, by the first device, the one or more options to be displayed via at least one of augmented reality or virtual reality to reflect an appearance of the available vehicle on the scale model. 2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: determining test drive information of the available vehicle, wherein the test drive information includes information indicating whether a test drive is available; and providing, based on the test drive information, at least one of augmented reality test drive information or virtual reality test drive information associated with the available vehicle. 3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: determining, based on the data associated with the vehicle information received from the second device, projector data; and providing, to a third device, the projector data, wherein the projector data causes information associated with the projector data to be projected on the scale model. 4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: providing, based on the data associated with the vehicle information received from the second device, financial information of the available vehicle, wherein the financial information includes at least one of: information indicating a price of the available vehicle, or information indicating financing terms for the available vehicle. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the augmented reality information is associated with the image data of the scale model based on augmented reality markers associated with the scale model, and wherein the augmented reality markers indicate where to provide the augmented reality information in relation to the scale model. 6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: providing, to the available vehicle, instructions to drive to a particular location associated with the second device, wherein the particular location is associated with test drive information associated with the available vehicle. 7. A first device, comprising: one or more memories; and one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, configured to: receive, from a second device, an indication of a type associated with a scale model, wherein the scale model corresponds to one or more available vehicles available in an inventory and is of a smaller size than the one or more available vehicles; provide, to the second device, and based on processing the indication of the type, vehicle information associated with the one or more available vehicles; provide, to the second device, and based on data associated with the vehicle information received from the second device, at least one of augmented reality information or virtual reality information, wherein the at least one of the augmented reality information or the virtual reality information indicates one or more options available for an available vehicle of the one or more available vehicles; and cause the one or more options to be displayed via at least one of augmented reality or virtual reality to reflect an appearance of the available vehicle on the scale model. 8. The first device of claim 7 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: determine test drive information of the available vehicle, wherein the test drive information includes information indicating whether a test drive is available; and provide, based on the test drive information, at least one of augmented reality test drive information or virtual reality test drive information associated with the available vehicle. 9. The first device of claim 7 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: determine, based on the data associated with the vehicle information received from the second device, projector data; and provide, to a third device, the projector data, wherein the projector data causes information associated with the projector data to be projected on the scale model. 10. The first device of claim 7 , wherein the one or more options include at least one of: an option associated with a color of the available vehicle, or an option associated with an accessory of the available vehicle. 11. The first device of claim 7 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: provide, based on the data associated with the vehicle information received from the second device, financial information of the available vehicle, wherein the financial information includes at least one of: information indicating a price of the available vehicle, or information indicating financing terms for the available vehicle. 12. The first device of claim 7 , wherein the augmented reality information is associated with the indication of the type associated with the scale model based on augmented reality markers associated with the scale model, and wherein the augmented reality markers indicate where to provide the augmented reality information in relation to the scale model. 13. The first device of claim 7 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to: provide, to the available vehicle, instructions to drive to a particular location associated with the second device, wherein the particular location is associated with test drive information associated with the available vehicle. 14. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising: one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a first device, cause the first device to: receive, from a second device, information associated with a scale model, wherein the scale model corresponds to one or more available vehicles and is of a smaller size than the one or more available vehicles; provide, to the second device, and based on processing the information associated with the scale model, vehicle information associated with the one or more available vehicles; provide, to the second device, and based on data associated with the vehicle information received from the second device, at least one of augmented reality information or virtual reality information, wherein the at least one of the augmented reality information or the virtual reality information indicates one or more options available for an available vehicle of the one or more available vehicles; and cause the one or more options to be displayed via at least one of augmented reality or virtual reality to reflect an appearance of the available vehicle on the scale model. 15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by one or more processors of the first device, further cause the first device to: determine test drive information of the avail
