Abstract

Disclosed herein is an improved method for providing content associated with barcodes in augmented reality in addition or in combination with providing content associated with target objects in augmented reality. The improved method advantageously provides a augmented reality client that a user may use to view the respective content associated with barcodes and target objects while in camera view to improve usability. Advantageously, the user is not unexpectedly taken out of camera view to view the content associated with the barcode and the user experience provided is consistent between barcodes and target objects. Furthermore, the improved method integrates barcodes and a visualization of the barcode within augmented reality, without disrupting the real-time augmented reality experience.
