Abstract

Micro AR is a hybrid physical/virtual hypermedia that integrates paper (a static/tangible media) and Augmented Reality (AR - an interactive/immersive media) using the metaphor of a loupe tool to represent magnification functionality. Making use of the familiar action of observing small objects as part of the metaphor, we can embed intuitive and semantic browsing operations into paper media. This system provides the user with an immersive, interactive experience through the use of a handheld magnification AR device and micro AR makers.
