Evaluating the Potential of Augmented Reality Interfaces for Exploring Underwater Historical Sites

Augmented Reality for Underwater the

The objective of this work is to introduce Augmented and Mixed Reality technologies in aquatic leisure activities. We have proposed a new device which is autonomous, mobile and easily transportable by one person. It can also be easily installed, equipped with GPS and wireless systems, and has positive buoyancy. The device will be used at water surface as well as underwater using a tuba. Moreove...

Evaluating Augmented Reality Systems

Augmented Reality Interfaces for Additive Manufacturing

This paper explores potential use cases for using augmented reality (AR) as a tool to operate industrial machines. As a baseline we use an additive manufacturing system, more commonly known as a 3D printer. We implement novel augmented interfaces and controls using readily available open source frameworks and low cost hardware. Our results show that the technology enables richer and more intuit...

User Interfaces for Mobile Augmented Reality Systems

User Interfaces for Mobile Augmented Reality Systems Tobias Hans Höllerer In this dissertation, we present typical components of, useful services associated with, and user interactions possible with mobile augmented reality systems, based on a comprehensive series of hardware and software infrastructures and application prototypes we developed. We define a practical taxonomy of user interface c...

Exploring visuo-haptic augmented reality for training

Computer based training has been intensively studied in the last decades and its application in different domains became highly popular. Current systems, however, only provide a fully simulated environment in which the training takes place. Their application is therefore limited by the complexity of the simulated scene or by the capability of the underlying hardware. A concept which can be used...
