Written text is a commonly used means of transferring information in our daily lives, and it is especially crucial in unfamiliar environments where we rely on written text to achieve our goals. In such scenarios, signs or signboards help us navigate and determine the direction we should take. However, various factors, such as prolonged exposure to the text, text obstructions, and poor lighting, may hinder our ability to read the text accurately, leading to erroneous readings. A single incorrectly read letter can lead to a false interpretation of the entire text, potentially resulting in serious consequences. To address this issue, we propose an approach to correct letter imperfections in a word and display it in an improved manner. Our approach consists of two phases: the pre-treatment phase and the letter imperfection recovery phase. The pre-treatment phase relies on Augmented Reality technology to detect and recognize text with letter imperfections. In the letter imperfection recovery phase, we employ ontology and a database to correct the letter imperfections. To enhance the accuracy of our results, we apply Augmented Reality technology to obtain a 3D image for perfect visualization. We conducted an evaluation and experimentation phase by administering a questionnaire to a group of participants to obtain feedback on our approach. The results were encouraging and demonstrated the effectiveness of our approach.

“…AR technology uses various devices such as tablets, computers, smartphones, webcams, and smart glasses (e.g., Hololent and Google Glass) to overlay artificial information onto the real-world environment. This technology enables the construction of 3D objects or 2D images to complement the user's real environment, as documented in [6].…”

“…In contrast, another study by [8] introduced the SpellBoard, a screen-based platform system directly connected to a tangible gameboard for teaching German spelling. The research by [30] on vocabulary learning incorporated collaboration aspects among learners in their study. However, it primarily involved tangible objects, with limited gamification elements and learners were directly exposed to the screen.…”

“…However, this system required learners to interact directly with a handheld digital screen. Importantly, existing studies, including those by [8], [20], [28], [30], consistently relied on handheld screen-based devices for continuous input tracking. This paper aims to merge three key technologies: AR, digital game-based learning (DGBL), and tangible user interfaces (TUIs) in preschool settings to minimize exposure to digital screens during spelling acquisition.…”

Over an extended period, spelling lessons have consistently played a crucial role in language acquisition, commonly integrated into educational settings to enhance learners' spelling proficiency. Traditional classroom environments often require learners to spell and write words, leading those facing persistent difficulties to experience anxiety and social disconnection. This challenge is particularly notable in preschool settings where a more interactive approach to spelling sessions could benefit children with difficulties. This research develops a screenless language learning system for spelling acquisition, with a specific focus on minimizing digital screen exposure for preschoolers. The proposed virtual augmented interface connects with tangible elements and game features. The tangible interface becomes the primary tool for learning, and the system achieves complete accuracy without necessitating learners to hold additional digital devices. The proposed system integrates augmented reality, tangible user interfaces, and serious game-based learning. Utilizing 3D Unity and Vuforia technology, augmented reality and serious game components are employed to create spelling content. The study highlights the importance of tangible letters and objects in conjunction with real-world items to facilitate cooperative and collaborative learning, encouraging social interaction among learners. The proposed learning content levels are adjusted to the age of learners (4-6 years) for alleviating cognitive overload. For gamification, the system incorporates three difficulty levels tailored to three, four, and five-letter words. This structured approach systematically enhances spelling skills while simultaneously addressing the challenge of excessive screen device exposure.

Introduction. The field of augmented reality (AR) is growing rapidly and has great advances in interaction, navigation and tracking. Nowadays there are a lot of trends for AR applications in different areas (education, entertainment, business, medicine, etc.). However, there is a lack of research to provide the evaluating AR apps framework to support developers when creating suitable AR applications for specific needs. We provide a practical approach to quantify some of the AR applications features. We focus on the development of criteria for evaluating augmented reality applications. We discuss the criteria of choosing dimensions for that space such as standards for AR, tools for AR development, navigation and tracking, content management, usability. We provide analysis and evaluation of AR apps through each characteristic using guidelines which we have developed. Materials and Methods. An AR application is a software application that integrates digital visual, audio and other types of content into a real-world environment. The software quality and performance are the main characteristics of the application, which are key factors for AR applications. The analysis of scientific papers, documents and standards made it possible to determine characteristics that are the most significant quality indicators based on well-grounded users' needs and demands. Results. The criteria we have developed for evaluating applications with augmented reality enable developers to create their own software products in stages, based on step-by-step requirements for them, evaluating the development process by characteristics. This approach will allow you to create high-quality software products using standardized, modern development tools. Discussion and Conclusions. In addition, developers will have a detailed understanding of each stage of creating the application and the necessary development tools and technologies to obtain the highest quality result. That will give an opportunity to decide on specific development tools, methods, models and technologies before starting work on a project. As a result, it will provide the final high-quality software product with good extensibility and compliance with the modern requirements of the digital industry market.
