“…As it is the case with new technologies (e.g. the augmented reality (AR) applications for mobile phones [10]), people are attracted and excited partially due to the technology showcased and not necessarily because of the content. However, it was not the intention of this research to limit this phenomenaon the contrary, we wanted to capitalize the momentum offered by the holographic display which is something rarely seen by most people, and to build upon this in order to create some interest for the real objective of the study.…”

“…This allowed visualization of 3D models of heritage sites to be superimposed over the video stream from the outside environment [29], visualizing virtual points of interest (POIs) overlaid on top of the phone's camera view [30], or textual annotation of outdoor locations based on GPS measurements [31]. Reference [32] proposed an application for outdoor site exploration throughout different periods of time, enriching travel experiences with important historic facts. In other research papers, the authors have used MAR applications "in situ" so that the visitors were able to explore and visualize building details in an intuitive way [33], to educate students visiting an outdoor archaeological site in a game-like approach-"Oracle of Delphi app" [34], or for huge reconstructed models of heritage monuments (e.g., Roman Theatre of Byblos) [35].…”

“…Participants were asked to rate their usage of mobile devices on a Likert-type scale (from 1 = "never use a mobile device" to 7 = "daily use of mobile devices") and if they have ever previously used an AR application. Each of them used a smartphone or tablet almost every day (mean = 5.9, SD = 1.1) and about half of them (32) had never used or seen an AR application. Figure 6 summarizes the demographic characteristics of the respondents.…”

Mobile Augmented Reality for Cultural Heritage: Following the Footsteps of Ovid among Different Locations in Europe

There are many examples of cultural events that distinguish people nationally. Celebrating this can bring people closer, as inhabitants of different countries share similar cultural values. This study investigates a sustainable way to enhance these types of events. On the occasion of the 2000-year anniversary of the death of the Roman poet Ovid, we propose a mobile augmented reality (MAR) application that contains historical information related to his life. As Ovid often stated in his last poems, he feared his work would be forgotten after his exile from Rome. This paper focuses on assessing whether this is the case, while also disseminating factual, historic data to people who tested the application. Experiments were conducted in Italy and Romania, in three different cities: Sulmona, Rome, and Constanta. Based on the results collected, four constructs were investigated: comprehensibility, manipulability, enjoyment, and usefulness. The results revealed that the usability of the MAR application, and the interaction metaphor, are appropriate for the general public. The MAR application provided a positive experience, and thus, increased the extent of the occasion.

“…As a georeferenced study, AR application on Pisa Monuments by Duguleana et. al [10] co-locates additional information about existing cultural heritage entities of interest located nearby. This study combines a non-optical tracking algorithm through GPS technology with optical tracking using simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) based markerless methods.…”

Outdoor museums of archaeological excavations function as sites of both scientific research and public display. Often, long-term archaeological research means postponing the preparation of the site for visitors. This paper focuses on digital tools for the representation of architectural reconstructions, i.e. possibilities for representing a range of hypotheses regarding the past ambiances of the ancient city. It proposes an augmented immersive revisit of the cultural heritage through mobile devices. Based on mobile phones’ current technical capacities, which enables rendering of 3D content combined with camera input, we developed the proposed mobile AR application for mobile Android devices. TeosAR offers a real-time, in-situ 3D depiction and visualization of architectural artifacts of the ancient city implementing model-based tracking methods.
