System and method for synchronizing, merging, and utilizing multiple data sets for augmented reality application

摘要

Systems and methods for synchronizing, merging, and utilizing multiple data sets for augmented reality application are disclosed. In one example, an electronic system receives and processes live recorded video information, GPS information, map data information, and points of interest information to produce a data set comprising merged graphical and/or audio information and non-graphical and non-audio information metadata that are referenced to the same clock and timestamp information. This data set can be stored in a cloud network storage. By retaining numerical and textual values of non-graphical and non-audio information (e.g. camera viewing angle information, GPS coordinates, accelerometer values, and compass coordinates) as metadata that are referenced to the same clock and timestamp information within the data set, an augmented reality application that replays information or augments information in real time can dynamically select or change how the data set is presented in augmented reality based on dynamically-changeable user preferences.
