Abstract

We are currently developing an AR–AR collaboration game to support children’s learning in museums. This system provides an AR–AR collaboration experience between multiple mobile PC devices for a collaborative exhibition viewing experience through joint physical actions in the game. A prototype of an exploration game for one person using physical actions that can be played on a mobile PC device has been developed as the first stage of our project. We evaluated the operability of the physical actions and the appropriateness of the gameplay style for child visitors in a preliminary experiment. On this basis, we developed an AR–AR collaboration game that can be played by two people using joint physical actions. This paper describes the preliminary experiments, evaluation results, and current system.
