Abstract

As technology evolves, the feasibility of implementing Augmented Reality applications on mobile systems has increased significantly opening opportunities in many usage domains. For instance, in the field of education and training, systems AR provides an easy and safe mode of acquiring knowledge and gaining skills and experience in complex contexts and environments. This paper describes two AR applications built for support of naval operations. The Tactical-AR was intended for training purposes, to demonstrate the maneuvers of ships in formations, according to tactical publications. The THEMIS-AR presents the use of AR in the context of disaster relief operations, where responders receive information on the incidents, tasks to perform, navigation guidance to reach the incidents and advice on procedures to use while performing the tasks.
