INTELLIGENT AGENTS FOR MANAGING DATA ASSOCIATED WITH THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJECTS

Abstract:

The techniques disclosed herein improve the efficiency of a system by providing intelligent agents for managing data associated with objects that are displayed within mixed-reality and virtual-reality collaboration environments and facilitating communication between the agents and computing devices associated with the collaboration environments. Individual agents are configured to collect, analyze, and store data associated with individual objects in a database associated with the agent . The agents are further configured to receive queries from the computing devices regarding an individual object. Agents can respond to queries by presenting relevant information collected by the agent with a view of the queried object of interest In addition, the data stored by the agents can be shared between different collaboration environments without requiring users to manually store and present a collection of content for each object. The intelligent agents can also persist across multiple collaboration environments to enhance user engagement and improve productivity.
