Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the educational experiences related to the use of mobile devices in the classroom. The article includes a proposal in which Augmented Reality technologies are applied to support the explanation of concepts by means of the addition of information to the object being recorded by a mobile device. This technique relies on analysis of the image features and their combination using a software application that overlaps stored data with real images. This methodology is set to improve the educational learning output of students through the application of these technological resources.
