Users who have access to a mobile device have increased in recent years. Therefore, it is possible to use a mobile device as a tool which helps to users in their daily life activities, not only for communication. On the other hand, augmented reality is a growing technology which allows the interaction with real and virtual information at the same time. Mixing mobile devices and augmented reality open the possibility to develop useful applications that users can carry with them all the time. This chapter describes recent advances in the application of mobile augmented reality in automotive industry, commerce, education, entertainment, and medicine; also identifies the different devices used to generate augmented reality, highlights factors to be taken into account for developing mobile augmented applications, introduces challenges to be addressed, and discusses future trends.
Los juegos didácticos son de gran importancia en la educación. En este rubro, hoy en día existe tecnología y software que coadyuva en el empleo de aplicaciones que apoyan el quehacer educativo. En este trabajo se lleva a cabo, en un primer momento, una revisión de diferentes investigaciones sobre sistemas de realidad aumentada; la mayoría de estos trabajos concluyen en que el uso de dicha tecnología permite una mejora en el aprovechamiento del conocimiento de manera subjetiva. También se presenta una serie de herramientas que puede usar el docente para crear sus propias aplicaciones de realidad aumentada y llegar a emplearlas en el aula. Finalmente se hace un análisis de dichas aplicaciones.
Rural economy has been characterized by low incomes and self-consumption production. With the expansion of global markets and the access of customers through internet, the possibility of moving traditional markets to e-commerce increases. This expansion allows the inclusion of rural economy into the e-commerce market. This chapter describes the challenges to be overtaken in order to activate rural economy through e-commerce. The chapter is organized in five sections: The first section focuses on the communication infrastructure available in rural areas. In the second section, the current state and challenges to be addressed for guaranteeing on time delivery are presented. The third section describes payment methods. The fourth section presents schemes of organization required into the communities to guarantee the quality of products. Finally, marketing, advertising, and social networks are discussed.
In the healthcare field, plenty of clinical data is generated every day from patient records, surveys, research papers, medical devices, among others sources. These data can be exploited to discover new insights about health issues. For helping decision makers and healthcare data managers, a survey of research works and tools covering the process of handling big data in the healthcare field is included. A methodology for CVD prevention, detection and management through the use of tools for big data analysis is proposed. Also, it is important to maintain privacy of patients when handling healthcare data; therefore, a list of recommendations for maintaining privacy when handling healthcare data is presented. Specific clinical analysis are recommended on those regions where the incidence rate of CVD is high, but a weak relation with the common risk factors is observed according to historical data. Finally, challenges which need to be addressed are presented.
