BACKGROUND

The exemplary embodiments relate generally to augmented reality, and more particularly to using augmented reality to mitigate the risks of handling items.

Many people may handle items in risky manners without being aware of the risks involved. When people are aware of the risks involved, it can be difficult for them to evaluate those risks and alter their approach of handling items in response to those risks. For example, a user may pick up a hot plate without knowing the plate is hot or drop an object they did not know was unstable.

SUMMARY

The exemplary embodiments disclose a method, a computer program product, and a computer system for mitigating the risks associated with handling items. The exemplary embodiments may include collecting data relating to one or more items, extracting one or more features from the collected data, determining one or more hazards based on the extracted one or more features and one or more models, and displaying the one or more hazards within an augmented reality device worn by a user.
