Abstract

Recently, museums IT technique have been adopted in the museums as information communication method
with the popularization of smart phone and tablet device. In this paper, this AR technique applies to museum. We developed the observation support system by AR technique for a Japanese museum. The developed system can tell their detailed information for the exhibited objects to visitor by AR technique. In this paper, three presentation method of the exhibited object-information were examined. First is that the simple information is only presented such as name and genus by AR. Secondly, when the exhibited objects are
recognized by the system, the screen image is switched. Then the text and movie to explain their objects are
presented on the screen. Finally, the button function is added to the system. Then, the explanation about the
exhibited objects is presented hierarchically by user’s operation the button. In this paper, the usability and
effectivity of these methods were examined.
