Research Proposal on Reviewing Augmented Reality Applications for Supporting Ageing Population

Abstract

AbstractAugmented reality (AR) is growing rapidly and becoming more mature and robust, which combines virtual information with the real environment in the real-time performance [1]. It becomes significant to ensure the acceptance and success of augmented reality system. With the growth of elderly mobile users, evidence shows the possible trends using AR system to support elderly in terms of mobility and independence [34]. However, there is a lack of the sufficient potential solutions using AR for addressing older population's requirements and experience. This paper mainly presents the current situation of AR application and reviews the different domains using AR for supporting ageing population
