Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Methods and systems are disclosed for displaying an augmented reality virtual object on a multimedia device. One method comprises detecting, in an augmented reality environment displayed using a first device, a virtual object; detecting, within the augmented reality environment, a second device, the second device comprising a physical multimedia device; and generating, at the second device, a display comprising a representation of the virtual object.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method comprising: displaying, by a user device, an augmented reality environment including a virtual object overlayed in a physical environment of a user; receiving, by the user device, a selection to display the virtual object by a multimedia device within the physical environment of the user, wherein the selection is caused by the virtual object being placed over a display of the multimedia device within the augmented reality environment; displaying, by the user device, the virtual object in the augmented reality environment concurrently with the virtual object displayed on the multimedia device such that a manipulation to the virtual object in the augmented reality environment is concurrently displayed on the multimedia device in the physical environment of the user; and generating, by the user device, a transaction interface including a user payment credential and/or a confirmation request for a purchase of the virtual object. 2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising: detecting, by the user device, the multimedia device using a camera of the user device. 3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising: detecting, by the user device, the multimedia device based on a network to which the multimedia device and the user device are connected. 4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising: establishing, by the user device, a connection between the user device and the multimedia device. 5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising: receiving, by the user device, an interaction with the virtual object; and prompting, by the user device, an updated display of the virtual object by the multimedia device based on the interaction. 6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising: receiving, by the user device, transaction specifications associated with the virtual object; and displaying, by the user device, the transaction specifications via the transaction interface. 7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising: transmitting, by the user device, a transaction authorization request. 8 . A user device comprising: a memory configured to store instructions; and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions to perform operations comprising: displaying an augmented reality environment including a virtual object overlayed in a physical environment of a user; receiving a selection to display the virtual object by a multimedia device within the physical environment of the user, wherein the selection is caused by the virtual object being placed over a display of the multimedia device within the augmented reality environment; displaying the virtual object in the augmented reality environment concurrently with the virtual object displayed on the multimedia device such that a manipulation to the virtual object in the augmented reality environment is concurrently displayed on the multimedia device in the physical environment of the user; and generating a transaction interface including a user payment credential and/or a confirmation request for a purchase of the virtual object. 9 . The user device of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise: detecting the multimedia device using a camera of the user device. 10 . The user device of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise: detecting the multimedia device based on a network to which the multimedia device and the user device are connected. 11 . The user device of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise: establishing a connection between the user device and the multimedia device. 12 . The user device of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise: receiving an interaction with the virtual object; and prompting an updated display of the virtual object by the multimedia device based on the interaction. 13 . The user device of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise: receiving transaction specifications associated with the virtual object; and displaying the transaction specifications via the transaction interface. 14 . The user device of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise: transmitting a transaction authorization request. 15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a user device, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising: displaying an augmented reality environment including a virtual object overlayed in a physical environment of a user; receiving a selection to display the virtual object by a multimedia device within the physical environment of the user, wherein the selection is caused by the virtual object being placed over a display of the multimedia device within the augmented reality environment; displaying the virtual object in the augmented reality environment concurrently with the virtual object displayed on the multimedia device such that a manipulation to the virtual object in the augmented reality environment is concurrently displayed on the multimedia device in the physical environment of the user; and generating a transaction interface including a user payment credential and/or a confirmation request for a purchase of the virtual object. 16 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise: detecting the multimedia device using a camera of the user device. 17 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise: detecting the multimedia device based on a network to which the multimedia device and the user device are connected. 18 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise: establishing a connection between the user device and the multimedia device. 19 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise: receiving an interaction with the virtual object; and prompting an updated display of the virtual object by the multimedia device based on the interaction. 20 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise: receiving transaction specifications associated with the virtual object; and displaying the transaction specifications via the transaction interface.
