  • Patent number: 11934643
    Abstract: Usage metrics for augmented reality content may be identified and analyzed to determine measures of fitness for respective usage metrics. The measures of fitness may indicate a level of correlation with an outcome specified by an augmented reality content creator and an amount of interaction with an augmented reality content item by users of a client application. Recommendations may be provided to augmented reality content creators indicating modifications to augmented reality content items that have at least a threshold probability of increasing the level of interaction between users of the client application and the augmented reality content item.

  • Publication number: 20230215118
    Abstract: The subject technology receives a selection of a first representation of a product from a set of representations of products. The subject technology renders for display the first representation of the product based on metadata using an extension application programming interface (API). The subject technology determines augmented reality (AR) content that is stored remotely using the extension API. The subject technology sends a first request for remote AR content to a camera API using the extension API. The subject technology sends a second request for retrieving the remote AR content using the camera API. The subject technology renders the remote AR content using the camera API. The subject technology receives a notification that the remote AR content was rendered for display from the extension API.
