This feature article examines Professor Steven Feiner's Mobile Augmented Reality Systems (MARS). These systems combine augmented reality, in which 3D displays overlay a synthesized world on top of the real world, with mobile computing, in which small computers and wireless networks allow users to have access to computing facilities while roaming the real world.
This extraordinary project aims to augment ordinary vision with supplementary images and information. Explore how it can be used and get a simple overview of how it works.
