1. A method for determining location and/or direction of location of one or more sources of intangible attributes, said method comprising:
obtaining, for a real space, an intangible attribute dataset resulting from displacement in said real space of one or more augmented reality and virtual reality headsets (“AR/VR headsets”), each of which is equipped with or communicatively coupled to one or more non-imaging sensors measuring, at different instances in time and at one or more three-dimensional coordinates that define a region or a location, one or more properties of one or more different types of said intangible attributes present in said real space, wherein said intangible attribute dataset includes said different instances in time of measurement, said one or more three-dimensional coordinates of measurement, said one or more properties measured, and does not include imaging data of said real space;
modifying said intangible attribute dataset to produce a source identifying dataset, which includes multiple types of information chosen from a group comprising information regarding said different instances in time of measurement, information regarding said one or more three-dimensional coordinates of measurement, and information regarding said one or more properties measured, and does not include said imaging data of said real space;
identifying, based on said source identifying dataset and without using said imaging data, one or more different types of intangible attribute sources that produce said one or more different types of said intangible attributes present inside said real space;
determining, based on said source identifying dataset and without using said imaging data, one or more locations and/or directions of locations of said one or more of said different types of said intangible attribute sources; and
displaying and/or causing to display, in virtual space defined inside a user interface of said one or more AR/VR headsets, said one or more locations and/or said directions of said locations of said one or more of said different types of said intangible attribute sources and/or said one or more properties of said one or more different types of said intangible attributes.
