User Satisfaction for an Augmented Reality Application to Support Productive Vocabulary Using Speech Recognition

Application Using Augmented Reality

Laparoscopy technique has caused a high impact in the surgical community. The success of this technology is the application of the surgical conventional practices to access in the abdominal cavity, with diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, with a minimum surgical intervention. This procedure has been used for biliary lithiasis, now it is an advanced procedure in several pathologies intervention...

Tangible User Interaction Using Augmented Reality

This paper describes a novel use of augmented reality for the visualisation of virtual objects as part of the move towards pervasive computing. It uses fiducial markers as switches to "toggle" the displayed properties of the virtual objects. Using collision detection, fidueial markers are also used to track and select nodes within virtual objects. This research uses the ARToolkit Version 2.33 a...

Augmented Reality User Interfaces to an Electronic Field Guide

We demonstrate a prototype mobile augmented reality user interface for automated identification of botanical species in the field, developed for the Columbia University, University of Maryland, and Smithsonian Institution Electronic Field Guide Project. Leaf images are captured with a head-worn digital video camera. A computer-vision component developed by our colleagues finds the best set of m...
