Abstract
Augmented reality links to stored files. A marker of a real object or a real location as viewed by an augmented reality (AR) device of a computer system is stored, in which the marker is stored in a database with a link to a location of a file or a folder in a file system of the connectable computer system. Saving and retrieval of a file or a folder to and from the connectable computer system are enabled by user selection of the real object or the real location via user interaction with the AR device thereby detecting the marker and activating the link to the computer system to save a file or a folder to the location or to retrieve a file or a folder from the location.
