  • Augmented reality output based on item acquisition limitations
    Patent number: 10553032
    Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for an augmented reality output based on item acquisition limitations. A user may capture visual data utilizing a device at a location, where the visual data includes one or more items available for acquisition at the location. A device may perform object recognition to identify the items within the images, and determine an item identifier. Using the item identifier, item data may be retrieved, and may be compared to restrictions on item acquisitions set for an account of the user. A visual output of a representation of the item in the visual data may then be configured to enhance or diminish the item's representation. The change in the item's representation may be output as an augmented reality visible to the user as the user views captured data of a scene including the item.
