Components of Adaptive Augmented Reality Model for Heritage Mobile Application

Abstract

Adaptive augmented reality (AAR) is the latest concept of the augmented reality that responds and adapts to a real-time context and thecharacteristics of the users. This concept is said to provide adaptation of 3Daugmented reality, better engagement and more emotional experience to theusers. In AAR, the information is provided to the users through interaction tracking and sensor on the device. However, this technology is still in itsinfancy. Therefore, a study to explore positive ways of providing relevantinformation that can enhance user experience is urgently required. Theobjective of this paper is to identify the components of an AAR model forheritage mobile application. It is hypothesized that such model would enhance user experience and provide better engagement. Consequently, models from past studies on Augmented Reality, UX Design and storytelling are reviewed. Findings indicate that personalization and emotion are among the important components. Inclusion of these components seems to allow users to be more engaged and inspired to learn about the cultural heritage, hence enhances user experience.

“…Virtual objects display data that the user cannot perceive directly with his or her senses. This makes Augmented Reality (AR) a helpful technology for supporting users in engaging with and viewing [1], [2] or interpreting information shown by virtual objects in the actual environment in order to accomplish real-world activities [3], [4]. Augmented Reality (AR) is rapidly increasing, enabling the development of educational applications in a range of fields [5], [6].…”
