a novel interface to sensor networks using handheld augmented reality
Augmented Reality technology enables a mobile phone to be used as an x-ray tool, visualizing structures and states not visible to the naked eye. In this paper we evaluate a set of techniques used augmenting the world with a visualization of data from a sensor network. Combining virtual and real information introduces challenges as information from the two domains might interfere. We have applied our system to humidity data and present a user study together with feedback from domain experts. The prototype system can be seen as the first step towards a novel tool for inspection of building elements.
