  • Patent number: 11609675
    Abstract: A system and method may include receiving data defining an augmented reality (AR) environment including a representation of a physical environment, identifying relationships between a plurality of scene elements in the AR environment, and obtaining a set of UI layout patterns for arranging the plurality of scene elements in the AR environment according to one or more relationships between the plurality of scene elements. The system and method may identify, for the at least one scene element, at least one relationship that corresponds to at least one UI layout pattern, generate a modified UI layout pattern for the at least one scene element using different relationships than the identified at least one relationship, and trigger display of the AR content associated with the information and the at least one scene element using the modified UI layout pattern.
