Development of an efficient, cost-reducing content management system for augmented reality applications

In recent years, the use of smartphones as well as other handheld devices has increased and spread exponentially. Despite the increased popularity and distribution of AR, development of AR applications is not a simple endeavor. Not only because it is difficult for people without the technical know-how to implement their own AR application, but also because of the high costs of the maintenance and development of such applications. This paper outlines and details a possible design of a content management system (CMS) for AR-applications, which can be a potential solution to the problem mentioned above. Considering some limitations of the mobile applications, many particularities need to be considered while developing this system.
