AR Neural Browser

Separate placement from understanding

An AR neural browser concept can associate a document note with a place or object. That association does not by itself establish that the application understands the object, has verified its condition, or can safely instruct a person about it. Keep the placement and the interpretation as separate claims.

For a first prototype, manually choosing the document and note location may be enough. Automatic recognition should be a separate project decision with a defined reason and its own evaluation needs.

Label the note's evidence state

A source excerpt, a reviewed summary, and an unreviewed model draft should not appear interchangeable. Preserve the document title, passage location, and any relevant version. A convincing overlay should not lend unearned authority to an unsupported sentence.

The article below connects these interface questions to the W3C AR module's scope. It distinguishes compositing from raw image access without claiming that every application using AR has the same privacy behavior.

Make permissions and data flows concrete

List the inputs needed for the task and the components that receive them. A language model may only need selected text, not information about the scene. Do not bundle unrelated access into a broad request for a more contextual experience.

Explain the purpose of each capability when it is needed and provide a useful path when access is declined. Keep the person informed when the session is active and make ending it straightforward.

Preserve an ordinary document view

Every note should lead back to a readable source outside the spatial session. The person may need to inspect it on a conventional display, share its link, or return later without the original surroundings.

Also decide what happens when the task, selected document, or placement context changes. Mark an outdated association instead of leaving a confident-looking note in place. Begin with low-consequence fictional tasks, restrained annotations, and explicit review points. Context should make information clearer, not conceal the limits of what the application knows.
