An augmented reality weather system
Marko Heinrich, Bruce Hunter Thomas, Stefan Mueller, Christian Sandor · 2008
This paper presents ARWeather, a simulation application, which can simulate three types of precipitation: rain, snow, and hail. We examined a range of weather phenomenon and how they may be simulated in a mobile augmented reality system. ARWeather was developed and deployed on the Tinmith wearable computer system to enable autonomous and free movement for the user. The user can move freely inside the simulated weather without limitation. The result of this work, the ARWeather application, has been evaluated with a user study to determine the user's acceptance and draw conclusions to the applicability of augmented reality simulated weather.
