Augmented reality through a heritage experience: from individual to group interaction

Abstract

Cultural Heritage experiences have been improved through times. New technologies like augmented and mixed reality have allowed many stakeholders to improve the offer and also its impact over users; transferring knowledge with informal learning methodologies. However, the traditional augmentative approach is commonly based on the Window-on-the-World (WoW) paradigm; which may isolate the user when a group experience is expected. Therefore, this proposal is based on the new paradigm World-as-Support; which was declared a few years ago, exposing the “Magic Lantern” as a tool for projective augmentation and extended reality.
