  • Publication number: 20240221060
    Abstract: An approached is disclosed that selectively replaces physical objects with virtual objects viewable in augmented reality. Selective replacement is based on user location and corresponding preferences mapped to location clusters. AI systems learn user preferences for location clusters and derive object preferences for users depending on location. Preferences and priorities for objects within each location cluster are derived using location data, purchase histories, IoT data, social media, communication data and other data sources. AI systems implement algorithms to predict levels of engagement between users and objects of a particular location cluster and as objects around the user are predicted to be uninteresting to the user, uninteresting objects may be replaced within AR environments using AR image overlay techniques with new objects having an interest rating above a threshold level.
