Augmented Reality Technologies in Mobile Applications To Optimize User Experience In Museum Tours
Abstract
This article reviews modern approaches to the development and implementation of augmented reality (AR) technologies in mobile applications for museum tours and analyzes their advantages, difficulties of implementation, and prospects for further development in the context of increasing user engagement and satisfaction. The focus is on spatial methods that effectively integrate virtual objects into a user’s real environment. In particular, the use of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is grounded, which is an integral part of the augmented reality experience, provides geometric positioning of the augmented reality system, and extends the real environment by adding virtual objects based on the localization and structure of the environment. The integration of SLAM with GPS data to improve the positioning accuracy and real-time visual interaction with the environment is discussed.
