Abstract

This paper introduces an augmented reality-based framework (called AugmentedBook) for e-learning that allows the creation of collaborative notes, illustrative media (i.e. video, 2D or 3D image, audio) for mobile devices or Google glass. The augmented content can be added to real-world educational support to make it more comprehensive, interactive and collaborative. In this platform, students and teachers can add collaborative notes to any part of the educational support system. They can also find illustrative media and indicate the pertinence of the result. Using our AugmentedBook platform, students can also download the enriched support using a mobile device. Our framework solves the problem of standard integration of augmented reality applications in education, offering a distributed framework which is e-learning compliant.
