Abstract
The rapid evolution of modern chipsets and sensors has led to most modern
smartphones are capable of providing an Augmented Reality (AR ) experience.
Recent advancements in web development have made it possible to leverage the
mobile device’s AR capabilities and deliver immersive content directly in the
browser. The web-based immersive content may constitute a future platform
for instructions and tutorials.
This paper aims to implement a prototype consisting of an instruction leveraging
web-based AR. The prototype was evaluated in a comparison against a
video-based counterpart. The comparison was performed by a user study conducted
on a total of 20 test participants. The results suggest that there is great
potential for tutorials... (More)
