Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method for updating an augmented reality (AR) display on a client device based on whether specified vehicles correspond to a set of client-specified characteristics for a desired vehicle, the computer-implemented method comprising:
obtaining a set of client-specified characteristics for a desired vehicle from a client device associated with a client;
processing image data captured by the client device to identify at least a first vehicle and a second vehicle;
retrieving, from a vehicle vendor server, a first set of vehicle characteristics for the first vehicle and a second set of vehicle characteristics for the second vehicle;
for each vehicle characteristic type in the first set of vehicle characteristics, determining whether the vehicle characteristic of the first set of vehicle characteristics is within a threshold range of a corresponding client-specified characteristic;
for each vehicle characteristic type in the second set of vehicle characteristics, determining whether the vehicle characteristic of the second set of vehicle characteristics is within a threshold range of a corresponding client-specified characteristic;
responsive to determining that a number of the first set of vehicle characteristics that are within the threshold range of the corresponding client-specified characteristics exceed a threshold number, updating the AR display on the client device to overlay a computer-generated indication that the first vehicle corresponds to the set of client-specified characteristics over a depiction of a real-world environment; and
responsive to determining that a number of the second set of vehicle characteristics that are within the threshold range of the corresponding client-specified characteristics falls below the threshold number, updating the AR display on the client device to:
obfuscate the second vehicle on the AR display of the client device, and
display a vehicle recommendation within an area of the AR display that contains the obfuscated second vehicle, wherein the vehicle recommendation corresponds to the client-specified characteristics.
