Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for using augmented reality with the internet of things. An augmented reality experience may be provided based on an operation of an object. Operation status information of a detected object may be obtained and a visual effect may be determined based on the operation status information. An object may be controlled using augmented reality. Operation status information of a detected object may be obtained and a control option may be determined based on the operation status information. A visual effect may be determined based on the control option and a user input regarding the control option may be obtained. A control information configured to effectuate a change in the operation of the object may be transmitted to the object.

Abstract: A system has an augmented reality device accessory that interacts with a virtual element in an augmented reality experience. Further, the system has an augmented reality device that that renders a virtual element that overlays a real-world element in the augmented reality experience. The augmented reality device also determines that the augmented reality device accessory meets one or more mobility criteria with respect to the virtual element. Further, the augmented reality device adjusts the rendering of the virtual element to increase visibility of the real-world element based on the one or more mobility criteria being met.

Abstract: An entertainment system includes multiple figurines configured for wireless communication, and a control device having a hardware processor, a system memory storing a control application, and a transceiver. The hardware processor executes the control application to detect each of the figurines via the transceiver and to identify a predetermined entertainment for performance by two or more of the figurines. The hardware processor further executes the control application to transmit control signals to the two or more figurines via the transceiver, wherein a first control signal instructs a first of the two or more figurines to perform a first portion of the predetermined entertainment, and a second control signal instructs a second of the two or more figurines to perform a second portion of the predetermined entertainment. The two or more of the figurines are configured to perform the predetermined entertainment according to the control signals.

Abstract: Systems and methods of simulating first-person control of remoted-controlled vehicles are described herein. The system may include one or more of a remote-controlled (RC) vehicle, a display interface, an input interface, and/or other components. The RC vehicle may have an image capturing device configured to capture in-flight images. View information representing the captured images may presented on a display worn and/or otherwise accessible to user. The input interface may allow the user to provide control inputs for dictating a path of the RC vehicle. Augmented reality graphics may be overlaid on the view information presented to the user to facilitate gameplay and/or otherwise enhance a user's experience.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods for simulating an internet of things capability in an object. Storage media may store reactions executable by a wireless communication device. The wireless communication device may include one or more sensors and one or more feedback capabilities. Individual reactions may be characterized by reaction criteria detectable by the one or more sensors and reaction effects executable through the one or more feedback capabilities. One or more processors may be configured by machine readable instructions to receive input indicating an object association between the wireless communication device and the object, and, responsive to reception of the input, activate a set of reactions for the wireless communication device.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to providing users with a shared augmented reality experience. Head-mounted devices are provided with the shared-augmented reality experience. The shared augmented reality experience may be provided to individual head-mounted devices based on sensor information conveyed by output signals of a sensor set of the individual head-mounted devices. The sensor set of the individual head-mounted devices have different reference frames. Discrepancies between the sensor set of the individual head-mounted devices may cause the shared-augmented reality experience to be presented with different perspectives. The individual head-mounted devices may have different perspectives of the shared-augmented reality experience caused by discrepancies between the sensor set of the individual head-mounted devices. The discrepancies between the sensor set of the individual head-mounted devices may be determined such that the shared-augmented reality experience is presented along a same or similar perspective.

Abstract: There is provided a first toy device that wirelessly and periodically transmits, using a transceiver, a first unique ID number, wirelessly receives, using the transceiver, a second unique ID number from a second toy device, stores the second unique ID number in the memory. Further, when the first toy device is in communication with a gaming device having a gaming application, the first toy device retrieves the second unique ID number from the memory, and transmits the retrieved second unique ID number to the gaming device to inform the gaming application of an encounter between the first toy device and the second toy device for use in the gaming application.

Abstract: According to one implementation, an image display system includes a computing platform having a central processing unit (CPU), a system memory storing a software code, a display screen, and a motor controlled by the CPU and coupled to a rotor for rotating the display screen. The CPU is configured to execute the software code to spin the display screen about an axis at a predetermined spin rate using the motor and the rotor, and to render each of multiple perspectives of an image on the display screen at a frame rate during each revolution of the display screen about the axis. The predetermined spin rate is determined based on the number of perspectives of the image rendered per revolution of the display screen and the frame rate.
