Enhancing Science Communication through AR Driven Visual Storytelling: Suggested Approach and Study

This paper suggests that integration of Augmented Reality (AR) with Visual Storytelling in non-scientific professional contexts is needed to improve communication of scientific research. The use of AR technology in Visual Storytelling for communication of scientific research enables science communicators to better communicate, and non-scientific audiences to experience and therefore better understand scientific data and its relevance to society. The paper urges the development of new principles and methods of Visual Storytelling with AR for effective communication of scientific research and findings that can also be translated into Design practice.
