Abstract

The early application of augmented reality (AR) was introduced. And the principle and application of mobile AR technology were discussed. Then the present application of mobile AR in e-learning was also discussed. Finally the existing problem and application prospect of mobile AR technology in e-learning were discussed. Our results indicated that the application of mobile AR technology in e-learning improves the students’ autonomous learning ability and learning interest, which is very important to personnel training.
