Exploring the use of Image Target Based Virtual Controller for Mobile Augmented Reality

Abstract

Mobile phones have made the Augmented Reality technology easily available to large audience and people are developing applications for it but the interaction with mobile AR is limited by touchscreen gesture, hand-based gesture can be used but it needs additional sensors like depth sensor and better processing power to work properly and lower end mobile phone devices cannot handle it and also external hardware can be build but around it but it adds to additional cost and is also not affordable to everyone. In this project a prototype application is developed to demonstrate the use of image targets to design a virtual controller that can be used to interact with AR content and implement basic tasks such as touching and moving virtual objects available in the AR space with the help of virtual controller and further the paper discusses about the benefits and drawbacks of such implementation and its future usage.

Exploring the human digestive system through ARSIPERSIA augmented reality insights

“…In addition to the primary responsibility of developing the application prototype, a critical component of the project involves the meticulous determination of the design attributes for the human digestive system objects, serving as image targets commonly referred to as Augmented Reality (AR) markers, as delineated by Jangale and Awale (Jangale & Awale, 2022). Within the ARSIPERSIA application framework, these image targets, instrumental in rendering three-dimensional objects, have been sourced from the Natural Science textbooks officially published by the Ministry of Education and Culture of the Republic of Indonesia (Zubaidah et al, 2017).…”
