Abstract

An augmented reality system that includes an augmented reality user device. The augmented reality user device includes a display for overlaying virtual objects onto objects in a real scene, a camera, and a global position system sensor. The augmented reality user device includes a processor implementing an object recognition engine, a virtual assessment engine, and a virtual overlay engine. The object recognition engine identifies a business from an image. The virtual assessment engine authenticates the user and identifies a user identifier for the user. The virtual assessment engine captures an image, performs object recognition on the image to identify the business, and generates a location identifier identifying the business. The virtual assessment engine sends a token with the user identifier and the location identifier to a remote server, receives geolocation notifications for the user from the server, and presents the geolocation notifications as virtual objects overlaid with a real scene.
