Mobile and Collaborative Augmented Reality: A Scenario Based Design Approach

In this paper we address the combination of the physical and digital worlds in the context of a mobile collaborative activity. Our work seeks to accommodate the needs of professional users by joining their physical and digital operational worlds in a seamless way. Our application domain is archaeological prospecting. We present our approach of the design process, based on field studies and on the design of scenarios of actual and expected activities. We then describe the conceived and developed interaction techniques via the MAGIC platform.
