Abstract
The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for providing a presentation of an experience (e.g., a journey) to a user using augmented reality (AR). During a capture phase, persons in the journey may take videos or pictures using their smartphones, GoPros, and/or smart glasses. A drone may also take videos or pictures during the journey. During an experience phase, an AR topographical rendering of the real-world environment of the journey may be rendered on a tabletop, highlighting/animating a path persons took in the journey. The persons may be rendered as miniature avatars/dolls overlaid on the representation of the real-world environment. When the user clicks on a point in the presentation of the journey, a perspective (e.g., the videos or pictures) at that point is presented.
