Object-oriented middleware infrastructure for distributed augmented reality

The paper describes design and implementation of software infrastructure for building augmented reality applications for ubiquitous computing environments. Augmented reality, is one of the most important techniques to achieve the vision of ubiquitous computing. Traditional toolkits for aligmented reality provide the high level abstraction that makes it easy to but. Id augmented reality, applications. However, the applications programmers need to contemplate distribution and context-awareness that make the development of applications very hard, but they are necessary to build ubiquitous computing environments. Our infrastructure provides the high level abstraction and hides distribution and con text-awareness from programmers. Therefore, the cost to develop augmented reality applications will be reduced dramatically by using our middleware infrastructure.
