US Patent 11551369 Augmented reality digital content search and sizing techniques

Techniques are described herein that overcome the limitations of conventional techniques by bridging a gap between user interaction with digital content using a computing device and a user's physical environment through use of augmented reality content. In one example, user interaction with augmented reality digital content as part of a live stream of digital images of a user's environment is used to specify a size of an area that is used to filter search results to find a “best fit”. In another example, a geometric shape is used to represent a size and shape of an object included in a digital image (e.g., a two-dimensional digital image). The geometric shape is displayed as augmented reality digital content as part of a live stream of digital images to “assess fit” of the object in the user's physical environment.
