Augmented reality (AR) is a direct or indirect view of real world scenes in which
physical objects are annotated with, or overlaid by computer generated digital information.
The past two decades have seen a fast growing body of research and development
dedicated to techniques and technologies for AR. In particular, due to the
recent advances in mobile devices and networking technologies, the use of mobile
collaborative augmented reality (MCAR) has expanded rapidly. Although there is
still a long way for MCAR systems to become commonplace, successful applications
have been developed in a range of fields, for example computer-supported
collaborative learning, entertainment, tourism and collaborative architectural design.
The use of mobile collaborative AR has expended rapidly in recent years, due to the major advances in hardware and networking. The application areas are diverse and multidisciplinary. Recent Trends of Mobile Collaborative Augmented Reality Systems provides a historical overview of previous mobile collaborative AR systems, presents case studies of latest developments in current mobile collaborative AR systems, and latest technologies and system architectures used in this field. Recent Trends of Mobile Collaborative Augmented Reality Systems is designed for a professional audience composed of practitioners and researchers working in the field of augmented reality and human-computer interaction. Advanced-level students in computer science and electrical engineering focused on this topic will also find this book useful as a secondary text or reference. |
