SLARToolkit - Silverlight Augmented Reality Toolkit Augmented Reality on campus | eLearning Blog Dont Waste Your Time There are many uses for Augmented Reality systems and applications already out there, but most I come across are for more generic “find a hotel” or “find a wifi spot”. These are great, but not really pushing the boundaries of what the technology can do. I’ve read a little about how AR is being used in Education, which is good and I’ve spoken of these before – “Augmented Reality: does it have a place/future in education? What about these ideas? Student Orientation: What’s the worst part of being in a new place? These thoughts came about from watching this video on YouTube; created for the Junaio iPhone app, it worked in this example in the indoor 2010 Kiosk Europe Expo to guide visitors around and to help them decide where to go, and when. If you know of somewhere that is already doing this then please let me know, I’d be happy to know that my thoughts and ideas were already being put into practice.
LinceoVR — Seac02 s.r.l. Technology Review: Blogs: Guest Blog: Treating Cockroach Phobia With Augmented Reality Augmented reality–overlaying the virtual world on top of the real world–has been used in everything from neurosurgery to iPhone apps. But until researchers at the Spanish Universitat Jaume got the bright idea to simulate hoards of cockroaches swarming over insect-phobic volunteers, no one had thought to use it as part of what’s known as exposure therapy. In exposure therapy, the phobic person puts him or herself in the presence of whatever they fear–heights, spiders, etc.–until, through habituation, they lose their fear of that situation or object. Augmented reality for exposure therapy promises to change this. Treating Cockroach Phobia With Augmented Reality describes, for the first time, a trial of augmented reality with a small group of people who all presented clinically significant levels of cockroach phobia. Combined with a camera on the front of the headset, the system allows researchers to show wearers both the real world and realistic cockroaches.

sergey_larenkov The Boggs e-Learning Chronicle: SyberWorks Media Center Presents a New Article: “Documentation and e-Learning (Part 5): Get Real!—Try Augmented Reality” Here is the press release on the article: SyberWorks Media Center Presents a New Article: “Documentation and e-Learning (Part 5): Get Real!—Try Augmented Reality” The article, “Documentation and e-Learning (Part 5): Get Real! − Try 'Augmented Reality'”, can be found in the SyberWorks Media Center. I have also posted it below: Documentation and e-Learning (Part 5): Get Real! By Dave Powell, Documentation Manager, SyberWorks, Inc. In the first part of this Get Real series, I suggested that real-time (or near-real-time) web data and web-cam feeds are a great way to pull the real world into online training. This second episode of Get Real describes a powerful new training technology called “Augmented Reality” (AR), which we all may be using within 5 years. e-Learning Goes Hollywood Augmented Reality is the dynamic mixing of web-cam feeds with computer-generated images, UI elements, and text. Universities and companies have been perfecting this technology since the early 1990s. Do It Yourself
Kunst & Kultur | avameo als ich diesen Titel in der Herbst-Vorschau des [transcript]-Verlages sah, wurde ich hellwach. Beim lesen des Untertitels der Dissertation von Daniel Botz schoss allerdings das Adrenalin in mir auf! Zahlreiche Assoziationen aus meiner Vergangenheit wurden innnerhalb weniger Nanosekunden abgerufen, ein Neuronenfeuer entfachte sich in meinem Hirn. Der Untertitel seiner Dissertation lautet: Die Ästhetik der Computer-Demoszene Vermutlich sagen die meisten Leser nun: Häh? [Weiterlesen...]
As promised a more specific ‘commercial’ follow up to my previous post on this topic which was more ‘story’ centric. I am developing & producing a range of Augmented Reality (or if you prefer AR, ‘blended or layered media’) applications at the moment. I have also been asked to present at a few conferences and create a detailed white paper on the implications of AR for government & business looking at privacy, legal, copyright & crime issues. As readers of this blog will know I also lecture, run workshops & work with creative teams to come up with future ‘social entertainment’ based around virtual worlds and augmented reality. But the purpose of this short post is to simply list and try to categorise the many types of business Augmented Reality apps appearing in the market. Information, 3D models or live action blended with or overlaid onto the physical world in real time.

Augmented Reality: Überbewerteter Trend oder "The next big Thing"? Augmented Reality: does it have a place/future in education? | eLearning Blog Dont Waste Your Time Augmented Reality (AR) is still in its infancy, but as people like me look further afield to find interesting technology to use in (and out of) the classroom, it has been on my radar a bit recently. So, what is it? “Unlike Virtual Reality (VR) that aims at replacing the perception of the world with an artificial one, Augmented Reality (AR) has the goal of enhancing a person’s perception of the surrounding world. Being partly virtual and real, the new interface technology of AR which is able to display relevant information at the appropriate time and location, offers many potential applications; these include aiding in education, training, repair or maintenance, manufacturing, medicine, battlefield, games and entertainment.” Source: Asia Research News, Augmented Reality: The Future of Education Technology Check out this YouTube video that demonstrates AR from the SMLXL blog; But what of AR in the classroom?
