Abstract
Augmented reality (AR) is a reasonably recent, but still large field. It does not have a very large market share, and most of its current applications are just out of prototyping. This makes AR a very anticipated and untapped niche. There are very few applications that implement AR technology in the Android Market right now. This chapter describes the real-world applications of AR, gives examples (along with images where possible), and discusses whether it is now possible to implement AR in the Android platform.
