Snap filed 1 patent in the VR & AR category.
The application covers augmented reality wearable technology that synchronizes multiplayer visual effects across multiple users' smart glasses simultaneously. This technology enables shared augmented reality experiences by coordinating real-time effects among different participants wearing AR devices.
Snap's single VR & AR patent tackles the challenge of creating shared augmented reality environments where multiple people can interact with the same virtual content simultaneously. The technology synchronizes AR effects across different users' smart glasses in real-time, incorporating eye-gaze tracking to manage how each person views and engages with virtual objects. Rather than each user seeing isolated AR content, the system coordinates perspectives so participants can collaboratively interact with shared virtual elements while maintaining their individual viewpoints and interaction capabilities.
