Augmented Reality (AR) Information System for Geography Education (3)

Abstract

We will provide a series of three presentations related to geography education focusing on Augmented Reality (AR) : two in the oral session and one in the poster session. AR is a view of real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer-aided input such as camera image and GPS data. Augmentation is conventionally in real time and in a semantic context with environmental elements, such as detailed explanation of old temples during the field test. With the help of AR, artificial and additional information about the surroundings of a test subject can be overlaid on the real view.
