Look-over-there: Real-World Co-Located Cross-Referencing Using Augmented Reality

Abstract

This paper presents a method that allows a ”guide” to point out an element of the real world, i.e., a reference point, to a ”tourist”. The guide and tourist stand side-by-side and each hold a tablet whose camera is aimed at the scene. The guide annotates the reference point on their tablet, and it is sent and displayed on the tourist’s tablet. Then the device zooms in and guides the tourist towards the target object. A user study shows that the method has significantly shorter reference point localization times compared to a conventional augmented reality interface. Furthermore, the study shows that the method can provide directional guidance through the annotation alone, without any reliance on the visual appearance of the region of the reference point, as needed for challenging scenes with repeated patterns or devoid of visual features.
