Enhancing internet of things experience in augmented reality environments

Seamless perception of objects' physical properties, such as temperature, is a key to improving the way we live and work. Thanks to the rapid development of sensor technology, Internet of Things (IoT) is shaping our world by expanding digital connectivity to real objects. In this way, physical properties of objects can be effectively collected, processed, transmitted and shared. Yet, only being able to sense the surrounding environment is not enough: A user-friendly way to visualize information is also required. Today, Augmented Reality (AR), which overlays digital information onto physical objects, is growing fast, and has been adopted successfully in many fields. This thesis focuses on fusing advantages of various technologies to create a better IoT experience in AR environment.
