In this paper the “experience design” strategies used in lifeClipper3 are introduced, and examined by means of qualitative ethnographic methods in a visitor evaluation. The resulting insights are intended to be beneficial for similarly designed future AR art projects.","PeriodicalId":223956,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality - Arts, Media, and Humanities","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116249712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This workshop focuses primarily on research that enables high-quality outdoor Mixed Reality (MR) and Augmented Reality (AR) applications. These research topics include, but are not restricted to: — 3D geo-referenced data (images, point clouds, and models) — Algorithms for object recognition from large databases of geo-referenced data — Algorithms for object tracking in outdoor environment — Multi-cue fusion to achieve improved performance of object detection and tracking — Novel representation schemes to facilitate large-scale content distribution — 3D reasoning to support intelligent augmentation — Novel and improved mobile capabilities for data capture (device sensors), processing, and display — Applications, experiences, and user interface techniques. The workshop will also showcase existing prototypes of applications enabled by these technologies: mirror worlds, high-fidelity virtual environments, applications of panoramic imagery, and user studies relating to these media types. This workshop aims to bring together academic and industrial researchers and to foster discussion amongst participants on the current state of the art and future directions for technologies that enable large-scale outdoor MR and AR applications. The workshop will start with a session in which position statements and overviews of the state of the art are presented. In the afternoon, we will follow up with discussion sessions and a short closing session.","PeriodicalId":223956,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality - Arts, Media, and Humanities","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117272369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We propose methods for enabling high performance computer vision algorithms to deploy sophisticated AR visuals on current generation Smartphones by outsourcing resource intensive tasks to the cloud. This allows us to apply methods on 3D feature recognition for even complex tracking situations outdoors, where lightning conditions change and tracked objects are often occluded. By taking a snapshot of the building, the user learns about the architect, design and history of the building. Historical media, like old photographs and blueprints are superimposed on the building's front, depicting the moved history of the famous House of Olbrich, which was destroyed during World War II and has been only rudimentary restored. Augmented Reality technology allows tourists to jump back in time visually by using their Smartphones: Mixing Realities emphasizes the user's experience and leads his attention to the impressive historical architecture of the Art Nouveau. In addition, we ease interaction means by superimposing snapshots. Tourists may view and read information also in a relaxed position without the need to front-up their mobiles all the time.","PeriodicalId":223956,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality - Arts, Media, and Humanities","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121371660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
