This paper describes spatially aligned user-generated audio annotations and the integration with visual augmentations into a single mobile AR system. Details of our prototype system are presented, along with an explorative usability study and technical evaluation of the design. Mobile Augmented Reality applications allow for visual augmentations as well as tagging and annotation of the surrounding environment. Texts and graphics are currently the media of choice for these applications with GPS coordinates used to determine spatial location. Our research demonstrates that the use of visually guided audio annotations that are positioned and orientated in augmented outdoor space successfully provides for additional, novel, and enhanced mobile user experience.
