The Brandberg augmented reality experience: past and present realities

Abstract

We propose a prototype of a Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) application, based around the prehistoric rock art within the Brandberg mountain. This prototype experience forms part of the Digital Humanities Project for Namibia that features an augmented experience aimed at promoting digitally archived information on the rock art found within the Mountain. Content that make up the experience will be sourced from an existing digital archive of Harald Pager's field journal to form part of the interactivity.
