Abstract
So far, Augmented Reality (AR) systems have been confined to research prototypes and niche applications. However, recent advances in AR research make it seem feasible that AR can go beyond this stage. We envision that it can find broad adoption on consumer devices; therefore, ubiquitously enriching peoples’ life. It is very likely that mobile phones are going to be the first delivery platform of AR for the masses. They already include cameras (one of the preconditions for doing AR)and they are already being carried on a daily basis by many people. As a result, several research groups and companies have recently been focussing their efforts on this target platform.
