Augmentix -- An Augmented Reality System for asymmetric Teleteaching

Abstract

Using augmented reality in education is already a common concept, as it has the potential to turn learning into a motivational learning experience. However, current research only covers the students site of learning. Almost no research focuses on the teachers' site and whether augmented reality could potentially improve his/her workflow of teaching the students or not. Many researchers do not differentiate between multiple user roles, like a student and a teacher. To allow investigation into these lacks of research, a teaching system "Augmentix" is presented, which includes a differentiation between the two user roles "teacher" and "student" to potentially enhances the teachers workflow by using augmented reality. In this system's setting the student can explore a virtual city in virtual reality and the teacher can guide him with augmented reality.
