Augmented reality (AR) is a technology that overlay the computer generated image on real world object. AR has been implemented in various fields and one of the fields is edutainment-based game. Edutainment-based game is a game designed to make the learning process become more fun. Among the edutainment gameplay genre such as tile-matching, action puzzles, traditional puzzle games, and hidden object. However, there are still a lack of edutainment gameplay that utilizes AR technology for hidden object game genre. The hidden object game in the market today does not use 3D scene as their background. Therefore, the objective of this project is to develop an AR edutainment game in 3D scene view by using hidden object puzzle genre. This edutainment game can be used as an alternative edutainment teaching aids in kindergarten and primary school. Player’s enjoyment is measured based on the evaluation of user acceptance level towards the gameplay, functionality and performance level. Results of user testing shows that 67% of the total respondents strongly agreed that this game is enjoying to be played. In addition, there are 53% of the respondents agreed that the game is stable when being played in a mobile device. Next, there are 67% of the respondents agreed that the presentation of the information and instruction are clear.

The concept of education for children is important. The aspects that must be considered are methods and learning media. In this research innovative and alternative learning media are made to understand fruits for children with Augmented Reality (AR). Augmented Reality (AR) in principle is a technology that is able to combine two-dimensional or three-dimensional virtual objects into a real environment and then project it. This learning media combines picture cards and virtual reality. Markers contained on picture cards will be captured by the mobile device camera, processed and will 3D animated pieces appear on the mobile screen in realtime. By using the concept of combining real world, real images on cards and virtual, applications can stimulate imagination and sense of desire in children and motivation to learn more and more. 3D fruit estimation created using the 3D Blender application and the Augmented Rea process lity is made using Unity and the Vuforia SDK library. The application of fruit recognition has been applied to several child respondents and has been tested on several types and brands of Android-based mobile phones. Based on research trials, 86% of 30 respondents stated that the application which was developed very effectively as a medium for the introduction of fruits.

In this work, the authors present methods that add value to the current Web by connecting administrators of a space such as a city with its visitors. The mobile device has nowadays become an important tool in the hands of visitors of cities and the authors present it as a gateway for the administrators to their visitors. The authors present a method that processes various environmental factors during a visit and uses these factors as a context for presenting the recommendations. In this work, the authors also propose a method that can measure queues in a city, and by knowing the overall picture of the situation, it provides individual recommendations of separate mobile devices accordingly. This chapter shows, therefore, the three main steps in the process of recommendation systems: collecting information, processing the recommendations, and presenting them in an attractive way. In this case the authors focus on presenting recommendations through augmented reality in order to provide an attractive tool for end users, which would, at the end of the day, connect them further to the city over the Internet.

Augmented Reality (AR) is one of the popular technologies nowadays. Along with the technological advances, Augmented Reality is an effort to combine the real world and virtual worlds created through computers so that the boundary between the two becomes very thin because Augmented Reality allows users to interact in real-time with the system. Augmented Reality can be applied in various fields according to the needs of each user. One application is on Android-based mobile hardware applications. This research developed the Augmented Reality battle with some of the features more interactive, interesting and clearer information to facilitate the user in its operation. This Augmented Reality is applied to the Android mobile device with the name of FruitGarden. This paper presented of designing Augmented Reality for recognizing the fruit of Indonesia archipelago which will give a different view of performing the fruit image and information.

Using a mobile device while driving or walking leads to inattention. The popular augmented reality mobile game Pokémon GO (PGO) requires users to walk in order to play, creating a possible multitasking conflict as users interact with the game. This study required three groups to walk a predefined course while either playing PGO, texting with a confederate, or walking naturally. After the walk, participants were given a surprise memory test for what they saw while walking the course, also rating confidence in their responses. Accuracy was significantly lower only in the texting condition; however, both multitasking conditions had significantly lower confidence ratings for their responses as well as more safety infractions. Overall, while the PGO participants did not suffer the same attentional costs as the texting condition, their unsafe walking behavior and low confidence in their responses may still lead to dangerous situations.

The development of virtual game applications has become an attraction for some people. More specifically, Augmented Reality technology can introduce directly how the atmosphere in a certain location or place, therefore, in this study we tried to create applications that combine the real world with the virtual world. By using the Markerless Augmented Reality method which allows users to use the application anywhere and is not limited by markers. With the Augmented Reality application it also allows users to feel the atmosphere directly in the virtual world. For example, like the Tugu Pahlawan Monument in Surabaya, Augmented Reality technology can be utilized by introducing directly to the public about historical buildings in Surabaya, so that people who have never been there or who have been there by using the Augmented Reality application can immediately feel as if they are located at Tugu Pahlawan, and with a virtual portal it will connect the user’s location with the Tugu Pahlawan Monument and only use a mobile device.

Color appearance models have been extensively studied for characterizing and predicting the perceived color appearance of physical color stimuli under different viewing conditions. These stimuli are either surface colors reflecting illumination or self-luminous emitting radiations. With the rapid development of augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR), it is critically important to understand how the color appearance of the objects that are produced by AR and MR are perceived, especially when these objects are overlaid on the real world. In this study, nine lighting conditions, with different correlated color temperature (CCT) levels and light levels, were created in a real-world environment. Under each lighting condition, human observers adjusted the color appearance of a virtual stimulus, which was overlaid on a real-world luminous environment, until it appeared the whitest. It was found that the CCT and light level of the real-world environment significantly affected the color appearance of the white stimulus, especially when the light level was high. Moreover, a lower degree of chromatic adaptation was found for viewing the virtual stimulus that was overlaid on the real world.

This manuscript provides two demonstrations of how Augmented Reality (AR), which is the projection of virtual information onto a real-world object, can be applied in the classroom and in the laboratory. Using only a smart phone and the free HP Reveal app, content rich AR notecards were prepared. The physical notecards are based on Organic Chemistry I reactions and show only a reagent and substrate. Upon interacting with the HP Reveal app, an AR video projection shows the product of the reaction as well as a real-time, hand-drawn curved-arrow mechanism of how the product is formed. Thirty AR notecards based on common Organic Chemistry I reactions and mechanisms are provided in the Supporting Information and are available for widespread use. In addition, the HP Reveal app was used to create AR video projections onto laboratory instrumentation so that a virtual expert can guide the user during the equipment setup and operation.
