  1. In Augmented Reality (AR), improper virtual content placement can obstruct real-world elements, causing confusion and degrading the experience. To address this, we present LOBSTAR (Language model-based OBSTruction detection for Augmented Reality), the first system leveraging a vision language model (VLM) to detect key objects and prevent obstructions in AR. We evaluated LOBSTAR using both real-world and virtual-scene images and developed a mobile app for AR content obstruction detection. Our results demonstrate that LOBSTAR effectively understands scenes and detects obstructive content with well-designed VLM prompts, achieving up to 96% accuracy and a detection latency of 580ms on a mobile app.
