1. A method for using smartglasses to view augmented reality content located in multiple rooms or multiple geographic locations in a site, wherein the multiple rooms or the multiple geographic locations have a plurality of augmented reality scenes, the method comprising:
a) receiving, using a smartglass device, a geolocation signal;
b) processing, using the smartglass device, the geolocation signal;
c) determining a room or a geographic location of the smartglass device;
d) loading onto the smartglass device, after the room or the geographic location has been determined, data on the plurality of augmented reality scenes associated with the determined room or the determined geographic location including a plurality of markers;
e) capturing, using the smartglass device, an image;
f) extracting markers from within an actual image frame of the captured image;
g) comparing, using the smartglass device, the extracted marker to one or more of the plurality of loaded markers; and
h) determining, using a similarity and threshold analysis, a loaded augmented reality scene to display on the smartglass device that corresponds to the compared markers,
wherein the similarity and threshold analysis comprises:
(i) considering a value of n matching on a total of m features of an actual image frame;
(ii) calculating the score of that matching as x=n/m(%), and
(i) wherein the similarity and threshold analysis is based on the score of matching and a target value associated with the extracted marker and the one or more of the plurality of loaded markers.
