1. A computer-implemented method executed via a server, memory, at least one device for rendering supplemental content comprising one or more of audio content, visual content, or extended reality haptic-feedback content, and a primary device communicatively coupled to the server, the method comprising:
retrieving, by control circuitry, a list of products from a database based on at least one parameter of a query received from a first device, wherein:
the list of products comprises a plurality of selectable icons,
a selectable icon of the plurality of selectable icons comprises the supplemental content, and
the supplemental content comprises a first data structure comprising instructions for rendering audio content and a second data structure comprising instructions for rendering the visual content;
identifying an audio output device comprising audio output capabilities, wherein the audio output device is communicatively coupled to the first device;
identifying a visual output device comprising visual output capabilities, wherein the visual output device is communicatively coupled to the first device;
comparing, by the control circuitry, the audio output capabilities to the first data structure;
determining, based on the comparing, that the audio output device comprises audio output capabilities compatible with the first data structure;
comparing, by the control circuitry, the visual output capabilities to the second data structure;
determining, based on the comparing, that the visual output device comprises visual output capabilities compatible with the second data structure;
wherein the visual output device comprises a plurality of visual output devices;
a first visual output device of the plurality of visual output devices comprises device information indicating the first visual output device is a video rendering device; and
a second visual output device of the plurality of visual output devices comprises device information indicating the second visual output device is a light transmission device; and
in response to determining that at least one of (i) a position of the selectable icon is within a threshold distance of a subset of the list of products displayed or (ii) the selectable icon is part of the subset of the list of products displayed, transmitting, via the control circuitry, instructions to the audio output device to provide one or more elements of the audio content and transmitting, via the control circuitry, instructions to the visual output device to render one or more elements of the visual content.
