An Analysis of Augmented Reality Systems
Hector Lopez, Antonio Navarro, José Relaño · 2010
Augmented Reality Systems (ARSs) are a logical evolution of virtual reality systems. This new type of system enriches reality by mixing real elements with electronic information. This paper identifies the common tasks performed by ARSs, the underlying software and hardware components that support them and the most common architectures for ARSs. Subsequently, the paper reviews some ARSs, identifying their main hardware and software components. Thus, the goal of this paper is to serve as a guide for those entities that are planning to deploy an augmented reality system.
