Techniques for displaying a multiuser augmented reality world on a first augmented reality device. Embodiments capture a visual scene for display. The visual scene includes a first user and wherein the visual scene is captured using one or more camera devices. Visual scene data for a second user is received from a second augmented reality device. Embodiments rendering a sequence of frames for display which depict the first user and the second user in an augmented reality world, where the depiction of the first user is based on the captured visual scene, and where the depiction of the second user is based on the received visual scene data.

主权项

1. A method of displaying a multiuser augmented reality environment, comprising:
capturing a visual scene for display, wherein the visual scene includes a first user and wherein the visual scene is captured in a first location using a first plurality of camera devices; identifying, in the visual scene, an embedded symbol associated with a garment worn by the first user; generating a virtual augmentation corresponding to the first user that is animated based on the captured visual scene, wherein the virtual augmentation comprises:
selecting a costume, from a plurality of different distinct costumes, without requiring user interaction by the first user; the selected costume having a predefined relationship with the identified embedded symbol; anddetermining a manner in which to alter an appearance of the first user, such that the first user is depicted as wearing the selected costume; receiving, over a data communications network, visual scene data for a second user, wherein the received visual scene data is captured in a second location, distinct from the first location, using a second plurality of camera devices; transmitting, over the data communications network, data representative of a three-dimensional representation of the first user, based on images captured using the first plurality of camera devices, wherein a remote augmented reality device in the second location is configured to rendering a sequence of frames for display depicting, at least in part, a first augmented reality character corresponding to the first user in the multiuser augmented reality environment; generating an augmented reality character corresponding to the second user, wherein the augmented reality character is animated based on the received visual scene data; and rendering a sequence of frames for display, wherein the sequence of frames depicts the first user augmented with the virtual augmentation and the augmented reality character corresponding to the second user in the multiuser augmented reality environment, wherein the rendered sequence of frames depict at least a portion of the first user as wearing the selected costume.
