Abstract

This manuscript builds a firefighting training system using AR functionality designed for home use. In the system, the user can practice manipulating a fire extinguisher to put out the fire burning in the room. The speed of fire is examined to yield the sense of urgency and a pilot experiment is conducted. The result shows that the mechanism a fire’s flame continues to spread if nothing is done, could give the subject a sense of urgency while there are opinions that the image quality of the camera is low, and that the brightness of the virtual object is different.
