Abstract
This paper proposes a novel idea of the Spatial Electronic Mnemonics (SROM) that augments human memory by using electronically annotated and/or converted materials based on places, objects and people in the real world. The SROM provides effective recall cues for information to be memorized with visual materials such as digital images captured and modified for easy association. A basic function as well as structure of SROM and some plans to construct the SROM is presented. The initial implementation and a preliminary registration experiment of spatial virtual memory peg are demonstrated.
