This year, global IT companies such as Google, Apple, and Facebook launched a mobile augmented reality platform. Existing augmented reality technology required a special device such as AR glass or tango phone, but now it will be easy to experience augmented reality in general Android phone and iPhone. The mobile augmented reality game market, which has been attracting interest since the Pokemon game, is expected to become more active. In this article, we introduce augmented reality platforms technology for mobile augmented reality game and mobile augmented reality games including ETRI prototype centered on user interface.

In this paper, we proposed a context-aware augmented reality platform for mobile augmented reality to support user-oriented virtual world information for smartphone user. We designed the platform architecture and 6 subsystems which are derived from the analysis of existing augmented reality applications and platforms. The proposed architecture includes a context reasoning service subsystem for the context-aware information filtering, and separates the inner platform from the outer virtual world network containing virtual information to resolve interoperability issue of POI(Points of Interest) data.

최근 증강현실에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 다양한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히, 스마트폰과 같이 고성능 모바일 장치가 대중화됨에 따라 모바일 플랫폼 기반의 증강현실 어플리케이션이 급증하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 모바일 플랫폼 기반의 증강현실을 구현함에 있어 사용자에게 증강된 가상 모델과의 촉각적 상호작용을 제공하기 위한 효과적인 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 모바일 환경을 고려하여 손 위에 올려놓을 수 있는 패드 형태의 진동-촉감 전달 장치를 비주얼 마커와 결합하고 마커를 이용해 증강된 가상의 모델의 움직임에 맞춰 촉감 신호를 사용자에게 전달한다. 따라서 본 시스템은 증강된 가상 모델에 대한 사용자의 시각적 상호작용과 동시에 촉각적 상호작용을 통해 보다 실재감 있는 증강현실을 제공한다. 본 논문에서는 안드로이드 플랫폼 기반의 모바일 증강현실 시스템에 이를 구현하고 그 유용함을 보인다.

In this paper, we propose CAMAR Core Platform as a framework for context-aware mobile augmented reality system development after brief introduction of limitations in the previous mobile augmented reality (AR). There have been many research activities on mobile AR due to recent enhancement of functionalities of mobile devices and development of relevant technologies to mobile augmented reality. In order to be used in ubiquitous computing environment, however, mobile AR systems should be able to utilize available contextual information, augment personalized contents, and share the augmented contents with other users. Thus, the proposed CAMAR Core Platform can provide such functionalities to those who want to develop CAMAR systems. To show the feasibility of the proposed framework, we show several applications based on the framework.

According to the 2021 Mobile Augmented Reality Market Report by Korea Innovation Foundation, the augmented reality market has been growing recently due to the growth of the mobile augmented reality market along with the development of smartphones. In order to provide augmented reality services to mobile users, it is necessary to create native apps for each device. However, there are problems such as maintenance costs for multi-platform and low accessibility due to app download. Recently, the construction of augmented reality system in a web-based environment by using the WebXR Device API is in progress, but it is judged that the system using the WebXR Device API is still in the research stage. In this paper, a responsive multi-platform environment was built using the WebXR Device API, Three JS, and React, and a function to provide augmented reality service to mobile and web users was implemented. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the interlocking of augmented reality was successfully implemented in a responsive web environment, and look forward to the augmented reality service operating on the web in the future.

Vision-based Human computer interaction is an emerging field of science and industry to provide natural way to communicate with human and computer. Especially, recent increasing demands for mobile augmented reality require the development of efficient interactive technologies between the augmented virtual object and users. This paper presents a novel approach to construct marker-less mobile augmented reality object and control the object. Replacing a traditional market, the human hand interface is used for marker-less mobile augmented reality system. In order to implement the marker-less mobile augmented system in the limited resources of mobile device compared with the desktop environments, we proposed a method to extract an optimal hand region which plays a role of the marker and augment object in a realtime fashion by using the camera attached on mobile device. The optimal hand region detection can be composed of detecting hand region with YCbCr skin color model and extracting the optimal rectangle region with Rotating Calipers Algorithm. The extracted optimal rectangle region takes a role of traditional marker. The proposed method resolved the problem of missing the track of fingertips when the hand is rotated or occluded in the hand marker system. From the experiment, we can prove that the proposed framework can effectively construct and control the augmented virtual object in the mobile environments.

In this research, we design and develop an app that can be run on multiple platforms and easily realize augmented reality. It works on PC and mobile (Android, iOS) in cross platform and users want to lower the barriers to entry of augmented reality by allowing users to select the marker to be augmented reality coordinates and the model to be implemented within the app. The app consists of Unity 3D engine and ARToolkit, an open source augmented reality SDK. Unity 3D integrates UI, markers and objects, and is used as the main engine for cross-platform development. This paper presents the design and production method of the augmented reality application and explains the use examples.
