Abstract:
Augmented Reality strives to produce a world composed from virtual models and multiple multi-media streams, and enables complete immersion into the result via modern mobile hand-held or wearable devices. In this paper, we present a conceptual media aggregation framework that is flexible, powerful and scalable to identify, establish and manage connections to media stream source (virtual and real) and produces an adaptable world view, which is then made available to consuming devices with attitude feedback. The framework is structured into three layers: presence, integration, and homogenization layers that work together in a peer-to-peer (p2p) manner to facilitate the delivery of multimedia data. Each layer features cloud-based mediator components, each mediator transforms an input stream into an output stream. This mediation process is context-aware, adaptive and dynamically structured.
