Augmenting the home to remember

Abstract

In today's world, there are increasingly many things to remember. Often the information is linked to physical world objects -- for instance usage instructions, personal histories, access codes or expiring guarantee dates. Mobile augmented reality (MAR) can provide a design approach, where we can utilize our everyday surroundings and attach information to the items without seemingly modifying their outlook. In this paper, we explore selected MAR scenarios from the augmented human memory point of view. We evaluated these scenarios in a online survey with 19 participants.
