Augmented Reality (AR) bridges the gap between the physical and virtual world. Through overlaying graphics on natural environments, users can immerse themselves in a tailored environment. This offers great benefits to mobile tourism, where points of interest (POIs) can be annotated on a smartphone screen. While a variety of apps currently exist, usability issues can discourage users from embracing AR. Interfaces can become cluttered with icons, with POI occlusion posing further challenges. In this paper, we use user-centred design (UCD) to develop an AR tourism app. We solicit requirements through a synthesis of domain analysis, tourist observation and semi-structured interviews. Whereas previous user-centred work has designed mock-ups, we iteratively develop a full Android app. This includes overhead maps and route navigation, in addition to a detailed AR browser. The final product is evaluated by 20 users, who participate in a tourism task in a UK city. Users regard the system as usable and intuitive, and suggest the addition of further customisation. We finish by critically analysing the challenges of a user-centred methodology.
Through Augmented Reality (AR), virtual graphics can transform the physical world. This offers benefits to mobile tourism, where points of interest (POIs) can be annotated on a smartphone screen. Although several of these applications exist, usabilit
Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) integrates computer-generated virtual objects with physical environments for mobile devices. MAR systems enable users to interact with MAR devices, such as smartphones and head-worn wearables, and performs seamless tran
The regular K-10 curriculums often do not get the necessary of affordable technology involving interactive ways of teaching the prescribed curriculum with effective analytical skill building. In this paper, we present PlutoAR, a paper-based augmented
Smartphone-based contact-tracing apps are a promising solution to help scale up the conventional contact-tracing process. However, low adoption rates have become a major issue that prevents these apps from achieving their full potential. In this pape
Providing pedestrians and other vulnerable road users with a clear indication about a fully autonomous vehicle status and intentions is crucial to make them coexist. In the last few years, a variety of external interfaces have been proposed, leveragi
