An Easy-to-Use AR Authoring Tool for Industrial Applications
2013
Augmented Reality (AR) applications have been emerged last years as a valuable tool for saving significant costs in maintenance and process control tasks in industry. This trend has been stimulated by the appearance of authoring tools that allow the fast and easy development of AR applications. However, most of current AR authoring tools are actually programming interfaces that are exclusively suitable for programmers, and they do not provide advanced visual effects such as occlusion or object collision detection.
Virtual Reality Applications for Higher Educations: A Market Analysis

Discounted Prototyping of Virtual Reality Solutions for Science Education
2017
Science education requires experimental work for learners to achieve the intended learning outcomes, which sometimes involve abstract concepts by nature. Advances in digital technology can help learners to undertake experimental work, which would otherwise be costly, either due to the scarcity of laboratory equipment or safety requirements. However, one of the major concerns resides into how to design usable learning solutions from the users’ perspective. That would require the involvement of users at all stages of design and development process, even if the technology itself could still be in its infancy. It can be very helpful to present the new design concepts to potential users at a ver…
Combining traditional and indirect augmented reality for indoor crowded environments. A case study on the Casa Batlló museum
2017
Abstract Mobile audio-guides are currently being used in museums to enhance the visitors’ experience. Over the past few years, some Augmented Reality (AR) solutions have been explored in this context, making it possible to provide augmented visual and sonic stimuli through the use of smartphones. However, the special conditions of museums (e.g. artificial markers cannot be used, small, crowded rooms, etc.) and the limited computational capacity of smartphones mean that there are important restrictions in the use of this technology. In this paper we introduce a novel mobile augmented guide for the Casa Batllo museum (Barcelona, Spain) which is based on a combination of traditional and indire…
Free networks visible networks
2005
Free network visible network is an active media system that uses the possibilities of the new technologies to create new landscapes in the public space by means of the visualization of the data that flow between digital networks. It changes our perception of the world with the "invisible meanings" that are around us. Mixed reality technology and Internet traffic listening system are adopted in this project in order to visualize, floating in the space, the interchanged information between users of a network. The people are able to experience in a new exciting way about how colorful virtual objects, representing the digital data, are flying around. These virtual objects change their shape, si…
Narratives of satisfying and unsatisfying experiences of current mobile augmented reality applications
2012
Over the last few years, mobile applications demonstrating Augmented Reality (AR) - such as Layar, Junaio and Google Goggles - have been introduced to consumers. We conducted an online survey to explore the user experience (UX) of early stage mobile AR applications available in the market in spring 2011, covering both location-based AR browsers and image recognition AR applications for object-based interaction. We identify various types of experiences such applications have evoked by qualitatively analyzing 84 users' narratives of their most satisfying and unsatisfying experiences. The results highlight, for example, experiences of awareness of surroundings, empowerment, positive surprise, …
Critical approach to 3D virtual realities for group work
2002
Collaborative virtual environments (CVEs) have been studied extensively during the past few years. In this paper, the concept of virtual reality (VR), and its value for group work are critically examined. To ground the discussions, experiences from a virtual reality project, from 3D chats, and from present CVE applications are analysed in the light of human communication. It is argued that the value of virtual reality is often overemphasised and overrated in the group work context, especially when conce rning desktop virtual realities and generic groupwork without an explicitly defined task or purpose. The main problem with VR is its self-centricity and inadequate support for shared real-li…
Benefits of learning technologies in medical training, from full-scale simulators to virtual reality and multimedia presentations
2010
The rapid growth of technology provides a wide range of new learning tools such as multimedia presentations of materials, interactive animated images for anatomy learning, 3-D models, full-scale (FS) patient simulators, and microworld training software, which are virtual reality tools that include high-level interactive haptic properties. These new learning approaches have been recently used in medical training and education.
Papildinātās realitātes spēles mobilām ierīcēm dizaina izstrādes principi
2018
Diplomdarba tēma ir “Papildinātās realitātes spēles mobilām ierīcēm dizaina izstrādes principi”. Darba teorētiskajā daļā tiek apskatīts videospēļu rašanās un dizaina attīstība, spēļu pasaules dizaina veidošanas principi (spēles elementi, mehānika, krāsu izvēle), populārākie un mūsdienu tehnoloģijas, un lietotāja saskarne. Empīriskajā daļā tiek izpētīts spēles “Čūska” dizaina evolūcija, sakot no 1970. gadā veidotiem spēlēm līdz mūsdienīgām. Diplomdarba mērķis ir izpētīt, kādas ir vēsturiskas izmaiņas spēļu dizainā ar tehnoloģijas izmaiņu, ka arī dizaina raksturīgākos spēļu dizaina principus formulēšana. Radošajā daļā tiek izstrādāts dizaina projekts “Papildinātās realitātes spēle “Čūska” diz…
