A new framework for easy and efficient augmentation of primary level books

Abstract

Augmented Reality (AR) helps students to understand abstract and invisible concepts in our daily life. There are several applications of AR in areas such as Medical, Cricket, Tourism, and in Education. AR delivers information (physical and abstract concepts) in a simple and meaningful ways which improve students learning along with increased motivation. In this paper, we propose a generalized framework for the automatic registration and augmentation of information (3D objects and audio information) of primary school books to achieve improved learning and motivation. A desktop based GUI is designed which uses an easy and step by step approach during the whole process. The experiments resulted in high accuracy with improved motivation and easiness.
