This paper describes the design and development of a location-based Augmented Reality (AR) application for mobile devices. The application provides real time data about transportation in a urban area. It can be set along the line of the continuous creation of richer and more complex interaction modalities between users and data. A relevant element in this strategy is the visual enrichment of the real scene perceived though the mobile camera, by superimposing to it a set of user-relevant information. In the presented work, this information is related to nearby bus stops and to the arrival of next buses. More details, such as routes, distances etc. can be displayed on demand in order to gain awareness of the surrounding infomobility data. The presented application is included in a multiservice framework named RMob, developed for the city of Rome. © 2012 ACM.

Abstract

This paper describes the design and development of a location-based Augmented Reality (AR) application for mobile devices. The application provides real time data about transportation in a urban area. It can be set along the line of the continuous creation of richer and more complex interaction modalities between users and data. A relevant element in this strategy is the visual enrichment of the real scene perceived though the mobile camera, by superimposing to it a set of user-relevant information. In the presented work, this information is related to nearby bus stops and to the arrival of next buses. More details, such as routes, distances etc. can be displayed on demand in order to gain awareness of the surrounding infomobility data. The presented application is included in a multiservice framework named RMob, developed for the city of Rome. © 2012 ACM.
