Low-Cost Mobile-Based Augmented Reality Viewer: Bridging the Gap Between Affordable AR Glasses and Smartphones

Published:07 March 2024Publication History

ABSTRACT

This research project aims to enhance the accessibility of Augmented Reality (AR) technology by developing a low-cost mobile-based AR viewer. The study delves into the hardware and software setup, conducting a comprehensive feature analysis of both the mobile-based AR viewer and traditional AR glasses. Emphasizing the accessibility advantages inherent to the mobile-based AR viewer while candidly acknowledging its limitations, the research also explores the broader implications for AR technology adoption and outlines strategies for future improvements in this evolving field.
