Uses of Augmented Reality for Supporting Educational Presentations

Abstract

This work aims to explore the benefits and potential uses of Augmented Reality technology for supporting communication in lectures and presentations. In this paper we present the architecture and implementation of an Augmented Presentation Feedback System (APFs). The system allows a speaker equipped with an Augmented Reality Head-Mounted Display to visualize visual cues depicted over the listeners' heads. These can be used as a way of providing the speaker with continuous, private and immediate feedback on her explanations, so she can adapt the content and pace of the explanation to the specific needs of the listener and improve the flow of the presentation.
