Abstract: Example methods, apparatuses and systems are disclosed for providing a device for capturing a barcode image within an augmented reality environment. An example method includes detecting a target object within a field of view of an augmented reality viewing device. The method further includes rendering an image of a scanning device within the field of view of the augmented reality viewing device, and rendering a scanning area within the field of view of the augmented reality viewing device. Further, a camera associated with the augmented reality viewing device captures an image of a barcode located on the target object. Corresponding apparatuses, systems, and computer program products are also provided.

Abstract: A mobile computing device enabled by a customizable data cognition layer (DCL) software program to convert input information from a variety of sensors into real-time contextual messages is disclosed. The DCL software incorporates customizable software components known as plug-ins to expand the use of the mobile computing device.

Abstract: The present invention embraces a system, device, and method for adding lighting effects to augmented reality (AR) content (i.e., virtual objects). Light sensors in an augmented reality (AR) system monitor an environment's lighting conditions to acquire lighting data that can be used to create (or update) virtual light sources. Depth sensors in the AR system sense the environment to acquire mapping data that can be used to create a 3D model of the environment while tracking the system's location within the environment. Algorithms running on a processor may then add the virtual light sources to the 3D model of the environment so that, when AR content is created, lighting effects corresponding to the virtual light sources can be added. The resulting AR content with virtual lighting effects appear more realistic to a user.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for a tag for order fulfillment are described herein. One or more embodiments include a number of tags each associated with a corresponding inventory bin of a warehouse, each tag configured to broadcast unique identification information, and a mobile device configured to receive, from a database, order information including identification information of one of the number of tags and a type and a quantity of an item of an inventory bin of the warehouse corresponding to the tag, and scan for identification information of the tag.

Abstract: A method of simulating a virtual out-of-box experience of a packaged product with an electronic device is disclosed. The packaging of the product has a computer-readable code which is scanned with a camera on the electronic device. A product demonstration application is retrieved for the product from the internet. Surfaces of the packaging are recognized by the application. An image of a virtual representation of the product is rendered on an image of the packaging to make a combined image, which is displayed to the user on the display of the electronic device wherein the combined image simulates X-Ray vision into the packaging, revealing the product. The method further updates the combined image as the user manipulates the product in front of the camera, revealing different view of the product, a three-dimensional view of the product may further be displayed outside the packaging, and features demonstrated of the virtual product.
