AR-based Learning Support System for Inorganic Chemistry

Abstract

In this paper, we proposed AR-based learning support system for inorganic chemistry. In order to perform experiments in virtual environment, markers are utilized as control interface and arranged markers are recorded by USB camera. Virtual environment is created from recorded image and various CGs (such as beaker, flame and so on) corresponding to markers. By operating markers, user can perform various experiments (such as flame test). Additionally, so the system can give questions and hints, user acquires knowledge of chemical reaction by solving questions in virtual environment. The verification of the proposed system was conducted by analysis of 12 subjects’ learning results.
