2 AUGMENTED REALITY TRAIL GUIDE
The Augmented Reality Trail Guide provides users with two
separate views for locating and experiencing points of interest
(POI’s) within a natural park: an overhead map view and a
surrounding AR space (Figure 1).
Figure 1: The two views of the Augmented Reality Trail Guide.
Left: Overhead map view. Right: Surrounding AR space.
Both views feature a collection of placemarks that represent the
POI’s within the park. Some placemarks provide the user with a
presentation of static, un-augmented text and imagery about a
given POI. Other placemarks go further, offering unique, onlocation
panoramic experiences.
