Abstract

Tangible Augmented Reality (TAR) has been explored for creating design representation for usability testing of industrial products. Currently, the process of authoring complex interactions for TAR entails scripting or low-level programming. A review of existing AR authoring tools showed that visual programming and authoring in the augmented view can potentially improve the efficiency of authoring interactions for TAR. This paper presents a review of the abilities and features provided by current AR authoring tools in order to identify requirements and opportunities necessary for non-programmers to author interactions for TAR.
