Abstract:
A mechanism is described for facilitating powering of unpowered objects for tracking, augmented reality, and other experiences according to one embodiment. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes scanning, by a scanner of a computing device, an object, where the object includes an unpowered object, and where the scanner is further to detect a smart tag at the object. The method may further include providing power, by the computing device, to the object, where the power is provided via the smart tag at the object, where providing power includes initiating an output from the object to enable performing of location tracking of the object, where the output is received by the computing device. The method may further include rendering an augmented reality (AR) experience involving the object, where the AR experience is based on the output.
