  • Publication number: 20240054690
    Abstract: A system includes an augmented reality (AR) device having a first display, processing hardware, and a memory storing software code. The processing hardware is configured to execute the software code to monitor media content including a sequence of moving images displayed on a second display separate from the AR device and controlled by a media player device, detect, based on monitoring the media content, an image in the sequence of moving images for enhancement by one or more AR effects. The processing hardware further executes the software code to render the one or more AR effects on the first display, and transmit, contemporaneously with rendering the one or more AR effects on the first display, a signal configured to pause or loop the playing of the media content on the second display.

  • Patent number: 11695988
    Abstract: A system for providing default content enhanced with supplemental content includes processing hardware and a memory storing a software code. The processing hardware executes the software code to receive a content stream including multiple video frames, a first video frame of the multiple video frames including first default content, first supplemental content, and first encoded metadata, and to decode the first encoded metadata of the first video frame to produce first decoded metadata. The processing hardware further executes the software code to select, using the first decoded metadata, at least a first portion of the first supplemental content for use in enhancing the first default content, transfer, using the first decoded metadata, the selected first portion of the first supplemental content to one or more predetermined locations in the first default content to produce an enhanced first video content, and output the enhanced first video content to a display device.
