“…Other markerless systems take advantage of known elements that they know will be present in the environment, for example standardised symbols of electrical circuits [14] or geometric parameters of piano keyboards [15]. There are other works that, although they present systems that can be used in any environment, actually need some condition to work properly, such as pervasive point lights [16], street name signs [17] or table surfaces [18].…”

Cross-Device Augmented Reality Annotations Method for Asynchronous Collaboration in Unprepared Environments

et al. 2021

Augmented Reality (AR) annotations are a powerful way of communication when collaborators cannot be present at the same time in a given environment. However, this situation presents several challenges, for example: how to record the AR annotations for later consumption, how to align virtual and real world in unprepared environments or how to offer the annotations to users with different AR devices. In this paper we present a cross-device AR annotation method that allows users to create and display annotations asynchronously in environments without the need for prior preparation (AR markers, point cloud capture, etc.). This is achieved through an easy user-assisted calibration process and a data model that allows any type of annotation to be stored on any device. The experimental study carried out with 40 participants has verified our two hypotheses: we are able to visualize AR annotations in indoor environments without prior preparation regardless of the device used and the overall usability of the system is satisfactory.
