Defining Core Knowledge Elements of Adaptive Augmented Reality (A2R) through Conceptual Model Analysis

Abstract

In this paper, a number of past studies on Adaptive Augmented Reality are scrutinized in order to define the core knowledge elements of adaptive concept. Through model analysis, where four past models were considered; components of such concept were gathered and proposed as a formal definition. Such components were included in a heritage tourism app running on mobile devices. Findings indicated that such core elements are indeed accepted as necessary in defining adaptive augmented reality concept. A Usability test was administered to all the respondents in order to record the app perceived effectiveness, efficiency, learnability, satisfaction and error. The overall score gets a high mean, where all five attributes gathered positive responses from users.
