Abstract:

Augmented Reality is an emerging technology with a huge impact on education. One of the most promising features of augmented reality is that it allows highly interactive visual ways of learning, being a suitable tool for making descriptive geometry comprehension and interpretation easier. By means of this technology a mobile app has been carry out to allow students to learn autonomously way by using their own mobile devices (smartphones and tablets), that work as augmented reality displays over training material specially designed for the new learning model defined by the European Higher Education System. Other applications have been performed through augmented reality to learn descriptive geometry but not developed for mobile devices, giving the students the possibility of using ubiquitous learning to its ultimate extent by interacting with the didactical content. The present mobile app includes performance tests reporting its software suitable execution and stability in mid-range and high-range mobile devices.
