Abstract
Traditionally, environment orientations are given via signposts, tour guides, or through the web. However, these methods cannot construct a good personal context-aware knowledge environment. With the advancement of Augmented Reality (AR) and mobile devices, mobile learning or ubiquitous context-aware knowledge, becomes easy and boundary-free. AR technology creates a user-centered, visualized operation, and a real-time-feedback knowledge environment by visualizing virtual objects superimposed with the real world. Meanwhile, context and location aware applications are automatically adapt to the environment of a user, for instance location, time, behavior, or physical condition of a person. This paper focuses on the integration of Augmented Reality and Geographic Information System (GIS) to enhance context and location awarenesslearning in mobile environment. The developed application was able to show significant outcome in a way of which information can be disseminated and presented to the user. For example, nearby features can be easily identified, user can obtained contextual information in real-time, information obtained is more on location-oriented, increases user awareness about events in their locality. Subsequently, it increases the level of self-tour-guide experience and context-aware learning environment.
