Patent attributes
An apparatus includes a cable having two ends and at least two object markers coupled to the cable configured to enable augmented reality (AR) detection of each end of the cable among a plurality of cables. A computer-implemented method using augmented reality (AR) technology includes selecting a cable of interest, identifying an object marker at a first end of the cable of interest, and storing the object marker. The method also includes scanning a plurality of cables, detecting a second instance of the object marker, and identifying a second end of the cable of interest based on the object marker. A computer program product for detecting ends of cables using augmented reality (AR) technology, includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform the foregoing method.
