Abstract

This research aims to study the development of augmented reality of rare books or manuscripts of special collections in the libraries. Augmented reality has the ability to enhance users’ perception of and interaction with the real world. Libraries has to ensure that this special collection is well handled as these rare books and manuscripts are priceless as they represent the inheritance of each nation. The use of augmented reality will be able to model these valuable manuscripts and rare books and appear as augmented reality to ensure that the collection can be better maintained. Users will be able to open the augmented rare book, and flip the pages, as well as read the contents of the rare books and manuscripts using the peripheral equipment such as the HMD or the Marker. The AR Rare-BM developed is modeled as an augmented reality that allows users to put the augmented rare book on his palm or table and manipulate it while reading. Users can also leave a bookmark in the AR Rare-BM after reading so that they can read their favourite sections again at a later date.
