Patent number: 11481423Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable storage medium has instructions executed by a processor to receive via a network an uploaded image from an augmented reality posting machine. The uploaded image is indexed to form an indexed uploaded image. Augmented reality experience parameters are collected from the augmented reality posting machine via the network. The augmented reality experience parameters are associated with the indexed uploaded image. An uploaded video is received via the network. The uploaded video is encoded to a video stream format. The video stream format is associated with the indexed uploaded image and the augmented reality experience parameters to form an augmented reality experience object. A scanned image is received from an augmented reality client machine. The scanned image is matched with the indexed uploaded image to initiate execution of the augmented reality experience object to form a video stream conveyed via the network to the augmented reality client machine.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2021Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: Strax Networks, Inc.Inventor: Eric Singleton
