I’m in the process of doing research for an AR mobile game I want to develop. I stumbled upon a ton of information regarding patents and AR. Specifically, there is this one assigned to Google https://patents.google.com/patent/US8968099B1/en called „System and method for transporting virtual objects in a parallel reality game“. It states

A method includes accessing at least one data source storing or providing data associated with the location of a real world carrier. The method further includes modifying game data associated with the parallel reality to transport at least one virtual object through the virtual world…“
I could be reading wrong but it sounds like a patent on the basics AR functions. Am I reading it incorrectly or should I be looking into changing my game idea to avoid issues?
