Augmented Reality for Mobile Devices: Textual Annotation of Outdoor Locations

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Progress in IS ((PROIS))

Abstract

For textual annotation of outdoor locations we propose in this paper an augmented reality method for mobile devices based on orientation and GPS measurements and uses a circular string of identifiers as data structure in order to determine what places are seen by the mobile camera. The proposed solution is generic and can be applied in all areas of the world if the required data are available (computed in off-line). The proposed solution has been implemented and served in our university campus for new students to discover all places.
