Abstract:
There are many historical and cultural sites which have been demolished due to the reckless urban development projects. ‘Pimatgol’ is one of those with meaningful history and culture. There were many attempts to reconstruct the sites using technology to remember the important places. AR Window is an Augmented Reality application for reconstructing ‘Pimatgol’ for smart phones. User can see the past scenes over the present scenes through AR Window. User can attempt multiple interactions like blowing a breath, wiping with a finger and touching buttons on a phone. We concentrated on how the multiple interactions affect interests and level of awareness of the users. AR Window will open a new path of digital reconstruction for smart phones through the multiple interactions.
