Augmented reality authoring with desktop and mobile devices

Title:
Augmented reality authoring with desktop and mobile devices
Goals & purposes:
• To facilitate the basic production of AR application with the desktop computer and mobile devices
• To disseminate the produced AR application on one’s mobile devices for teaching and learning
Summary:
Developing AR application can be challenging for the people without computer language and digital graphic design background. In viewing of several AR authoring software applications, it is found that CoSpaces (https://cospaces.io/edu/) is an online platform linking to its multimedia library (e.g., 3D models, digital audio, and images). The visualised platform enables authoring functions with block-based coding. Students can also upload their 3D models (e.g., from Tinkercad) and disseminate their AR applications on their mobile devices as CoSpaces mobile app is free and cross-platforms.
