Browsing the Web of Things in Mobile Augmented Reality

Abstract

With the current augmented reality and low-power radio technology present on mobile platforms, we can imagine a standard and physically tangible browsing mechanism for objects in the Web of Things. We explore a model for user interaction with IoT devices that makes use of mobile augmented reality to allow users to identify new devices or easily access regularly-used devices in their environment, enables immediate interaction with quicklyobtainable user interfaces from the web, and provides developers a convenient platform to display custom interfaces for their devices. This model represents a step towards software-based interaction that might, one day, feel as intuitive, accessible, and familiar as the physical interfaces we commonly encounter in our daily lives. CCS CONCEPTS• Human-centered computing → Web-based interaction; User interface design; Mixed / augmented reality; Ubiquitous and mobile computing systems and tools;• Information systems → Service discovery and interfaces; Web interfaces; Users and interactive retrieval; • Networks → Mobile ad hoc networks.

Design of a Mobile Augmented Reality Platform with Game-Based Learning Purposes

“…The development of a MAR system may not simply rely on the user/gamer interaction component. Key aspects such as gamification or student and teacher engagement-requiring access to further information in a persistent way, such as player scores or gaming objects-may lead to the integration of MAR applications in a cloud or server ecosystem comprising elements such as Web and Database servers and a set of Web applications and services, that manage the flow of information among the other elements, as a part of the Web of Things [28]. As far as MAR systems are concerned, the architectures have been following the trends of general mobile and web development.…”
