Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) is no longer just a gimmick. 50 years after the development of the first head-mounted display, and approaching the 20th anniversary of the first conference dedicated to AR, it is time for a new review on the theme. As such, we present a bibliometric analysis of scientific literature since 1997, using as database the Web of Science. This allowed identifying the most relevant authors, their distribution by subjects, the evolution of publishing by year and the most frequent publications.
