The development of network enabled augmented reality mobile applications

In this thesis, I designed, implemented, and evaluated network-enabled augmented reality mobile applications by extending an implementation of the MITAR iPhone client designed by the Scheller Teacher Education Program. In particular, I designed a multiplayer version of the client, which allows multiple users to interact with each other in a single game across multiple handsets and multiple platforms, and a data collection service that allows users to log media (such as pictures and text) throughout the duration of their game. The end result is an augmented reality client that fully takes advantage of the ubiquitous network connectivity offered by most modern mobile handsets.
