Abstract:
Systems and methods for utilizing living entities as markers for virtual content in an augmented reality environment are discussed herein. The virtual content may comprise objects, surfaces, textures, effects, and/or other content visibly manifested in views of the augmented reality environment. In some implementations, the virtual content may comprise an avatar and/or other full- or partial-body virtual content object depicted based on the living entity. A living entity and multiple linkage points for the living entity may be detected within the field of view of a user. Based on the arrangement of the linkage points, virtual content may be rendered and appear superimposed over or in conjunction with a view of the living entity in the augmented reality environment. In some implementations, the rendering of virtual content in the augmented reality environment may be triggered by the arrangement of the multiple linkage points for a given living entity.

Claim (Index 13):
A method of utilizing living entities as markers for virtual content viewed in an augmented reality environment, the method comprising:\n detecting a living entity a within a field of view of a real world view of a user, the living entity being a separate and discrete entity from the user; detecting multiple linkage points for the living entity; determining an arrangement of the multiple linkage points, wherein the arrangement defines the relative position of each of the linkage points to each of the other linkage points of the multiple linkage points; obtaining virtual content information based on the arrangement, wherein the virtual content information defines (i) a virtual content item to be displayed when the arrangement is present and (ii) a correlation between the arrangement and a reference frame of the virtual content item; generating an image of the visual virtual content item to be displayed in the augmented reality environment based on the living entity, wherein the image of the virtual content item is generated based at least on the virtual content information and the field of view of the real world view of the user; and causing the image of the visual virtual content item to be displayed in the augmented reality environment via the display device, wherein the display device is configured to superimpose images of the visual virtual content over a view of the user of the real world to create a visual effect of the augmented reality environment being present in the real world so that the image of the virtual content is superimposed over the view of the user of the real world.
