Template based authoring for AR based service scenarios
Abstract
As of today one of the major application domains for Augmented Reality is the service and maintenance of manufactured products, e.g. cars, planes, large machinery. In this area, Augmented Reality is used to support service personnel in carrying out their repair tasks by displaying context-sensitive, additional, virtual information in their field of view. One major problem is the creation of such information. In this paper the authors describe a concept, which heavily simplifies the creation of AR based manuals and even allows people without special AR and IT skills to carry out this task.
