Augmented reality assistant

Abstract:

An augmented reality AR device may be communicatively connected to a remote network management platform configured to support a managed network. The AR device may capture an image of a real object in the field of view of an imaging component of the AR device. The real object may be recognized as a known managed object of the managed network. The AR device may also concurrently determine context information indicating a location or physical environment. The AR device may then transmit an identifier of the known managed object and the context information in a message to the management platform. In response, the AR device may receive data associated with the known managed. The AR device may then display a virtual object in a virtual space superimposed on the captured image of the real object, where the virtual object and the virtual space are based on the received management data.
