A computer aided education system based on augmented reality by immersion to 3-D magnetic field

In this paper, a visualization system of immersion into 3D magnetic field based on the augmented reality technology using a head mounted display, for education purpose, is presented. By utilizing the proposed visualization method, a user can easily observe and perceive in real-time a magnetic field distribution generated by single/multiple sources (e.g., permanent magnets and/or coils) and other magnetic/nonmagnetic material in an augmented 3-D space.
