Claim:
1. An augmented reality (AR) device comprising: a transparent display; a thermal sensor configured to generate thermal data related to physical objects detected by the AR device; a depth sensor configured to generate depth data of the physical objects and map the physical objects in a three-dimensional space based on the depth data; a processor comprising an augmented reality (AR) application, a thermal anomaly detection engine, a thermal baseline identification module, and a thermal anomaly identification module, the thermal anomaly detection engine configured to access a thermal baseline established based on a combination of depth data of the physical objects, thermal data of the physical objects in the mapped three-dimensional space, and thermal context of the physical objects based on their operating status and thermal parameters, to identify a thermal anomaly based on a context of the physical objects, the thermal data of the physical objects, and the established thermal baseline, and to generate a warning notification in response to the identified thermal anomaly, the thermal baseline identification module configured to identify operating thermal ranges of the physical objects, and to generate the thermal parameters based on the operating thermal ranges of the physical objects, the thermal anomaly identification module configured to identify a physical object with a temperature exceeding the thermal parameters, and to generate correction information based on the context of the physical objects, and the AR application configured to cause a display of AR content comprising identifying the physical object associated with the thermal anomaly in the transparent display, and to display the correction information in the transparent display.
