Abstract

An architecture is provided for packaging visual overlay-based user interfaces (UIs) into mobile device applications to work as user interface extensions that allow certain flows and logic to be displayed on an eyewear device when connected to the mobile device application. The extension of the UIs of the mobile device applications to the display of the eyewear device allows for inexpensive experimentation with augmented reality (AR) UIs for eyewear devices and allows for reusing of business logic across mobile devices and associated eyewear devices. For example, a mobile device application for maps or navigation may be extended to show directions on an associated eyewear device once the destination is chosen in the navigation application on the mobile device. In this example, the business logic would still live in the navigation application on the mobile device but the user would see AR directions overlaid on a display of the eyewear device.
