The user device(s) collect the sensory data at the specified location in a manner that is transparent to the augmented reality experience of the user(s). The sensory data is uploaded from the user device(s) to the augmented reality system, which sends the sensory data to the customer.

Abstract: An approach is provided that executes on a mobile device with a touch-enabled display screen. The approach receives, from a user of the mobile device, a gesture entered on the touch-enabled display screen with the gesture being entered using an input instrument, such as a finger or thumb, operated by the user. In response to receiving the gesture, the approach identifies the application that is currently being displayed, predicts an intent of the user based on past user actions received during previous executions of the application. The predicted intent predicts the element displayed on the screen that is desired by the user. The approach also creates a cloned copy of the current application display and provides a virtual target window by displaying the cloned copy on the touch-enabled display screen in a position that makes the predicted element accessible to the input instrument operated by the user.
