Abstract
While early outdoor Augmented Reality (AR) systems required cumbersome equipment to be worn by the user, recent developments in mobile device technology mean that smartphones can now run AR applications. In this tutorial, attendees will learn how to build their own mobile outdoor AR application using the HIT Lab NZ Outdoor AR library. It will start with an overview of outdoor AR technology including core concepts, history and recent research trends. Then we will show how to build a custom mobile AR application using the Outdoor AR library, a component based framework that is easy to customize and reuse.
