Augmented Reality Environmental Monitoring Using Wireless Sensor Networks
Daniel Goldsmith, Fotis Liarokapis, Gary Malone, John F. Kemp · 2008
Environmental monitoring brings many challenges to wireless sensor networks: including the need to collect and process large volumes of data before presenting the information to the user in an easy to understand format. This paper presents SensAR, a prototype augmented reality interface specifically designed for monitoring environmental information. The input of our prototype is sound and temperature data which are located inside a networked environment. Participants can visualise 3D as well as textual representations of environmental information in real-time using a lightweight handheld computer.
