AR Digital Workspace Using a Mobile Device
Article No.: 21, Pages 1 - 2
Abstract
In this study, to overcome the issues with the narrow display areas of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, we propose an Augmented Reality (AR) technology called “AR Digital Workspace” that augments a workspace in real space by superimposing windows on a plane in real space. In the proposed interface, a plane in real space is detected when a user moves a mobile device, and multiple windows are superimposed on the detected plane. By touching the screen of the device, the user can change the position and size of the windows, and copy and paste text between windows. The user can also copy text in real space using character recognition on document images acquired from the camera. This system enables users to work while displaying a large amount of information in a pseudo spacious workspace. We implemented the proposed interface on a mobile device using ARCore, an AR framework for Android devices.

Using a mobile device as an interface tool for HMD-based AR applications
ACE '06: Proceedings of the 2006 ACM SIGCHI international conference on Advances in computer entertainment technologyIn this paper, we suggest that we can use our mobile devices as an effective interface for HMD-based augmented reality (AR) applications. These days most of us can possibly send short message with our mobile phones and watch the movies on our PDAs. ...
