Abstract

A computer-implemented system and method for rendering a virtual object based on real world locations and tags are provided. A set of virtual objects is maintained in an actions database on a mobile computing device. Each virtual object is associated with pairings of identifiers and coordinates for one or more physical locations. A physical location of the mobile computing device is tracked and also an identification tag within range of the mobile computing device is identified. The virtual object is identified as at least one of the pairings of coordinates and identifiers that match the physical location and the identification tag. Then, the virtual object is rendered using the mobile computing device based on the matching of the pairings.
