Research on Rule-Based AR System for Users’ Situation Awareness

Recently, more researches have been done on a new interface which induces reactions based on user behavior patterns through augmented reality (AR) agent design to which context-aware technology is applied. Most researches are still in an early stage and insufficient for recognizing/utilizing information of context between reality and virtual reality. This study, therefore, analyzes profiles and behavior patterns of users by developing a health management-based scenario and combines it with an AR system. At the same time, a user is allowed to induce interaction with an AR system in order to prevent unnecessary exposure of information and provide additional data. To that end, this research analyzes context-aware patterns and marker information-aware patterns, which examine user behavior patterns, so as to activate AR information with the data provided as the result of the analysis. The system suggested in this research can be applied to educational contents. Learned context information and AR analysis are expected to make data delivery and communications with customers more effective.
