Abstract
Embodiments describe an approach for locating one or more light emitters proximate to a location of a physical display area. Embodiments further describe transmitting information of a target content to an augmented reality device using light generated by the one or more light emitters, wherein the information includes a light-based data stream of the target content and the target content is not pre-loaded; and responsive to a reception of the information of the target content by the augmented reality device, determining a portion of the target content for displaying on the physical display area. Embodiments also describe overlaying target contents on a physical display area using projected light grid or a grid of light emitters. Information on the target contents is transmitted from the emitters using light to an augmented reality device. The information includes light-based data stream of the target contents and physical coordinates of a frame.
