Miniature Alive: Augmented Reality-based Interactive DigiLog Experience in Miniature Exhibition

Abstract

In this paper, we present Miniature Alive, a next-generation interactive miniature exhibition that provides a DigiLog experience that combines aesthetic/spatial feelings with an analog miniature and dynamic interaction with digitalized 3D content by exploiting augmented reality (AR) technology. Using our Miniature Alive, exhibition visitors can enjoy virtual storytelling in the physical miniature by turning a page of an e-book, interacting with augmented 3D objects through their mobile phones, and even change the original story. Our work is useful in guiding the design and implementation of new miniature exhibitions.
