Augmented reality allows the superimposing of computer-generated images over real scenes in real time. This paper describes a project in which an interactive solar system was developed to help middle school students in the sciences understand spatial concepts using augmented reality. The marker-based augmented reality application works by using a camera to read a marker, then calculates the camera position in 3D space, and superimposes the solar system. With a webcam and a laptop, augmented reality application development is highly accessible.The visualization application research detailed here will be used for formal pedagogical research examining whether students benefit from this method by conducting both pre-event and post-event assessment surveys. The surveys will gather valuable feedback from middle-school science students concerning whether the augmented reality method is effective for teaching and learning. Preliminary feedback from students and educators indicates that this visual teaching method is effective. |
