SmartReality: Integrating the Web into Augmented Reality

This poster and accompanying demo shows how Semantic Web and Linked Data technologies are incorporated into an Augmented Reality platform in the SmartReality project and form the basis for enhanced Augmented Reality mobile applications in which information and content in the user's surroundings can be presented in a more meaningful and useful manner. We describe how things of interest are described semantically and linked into the Linked Open Data cloud. Relevant metadata about things is collected and processed in order to identify and retrieve related content and services on the Web. Finally, the us- er sees this information intuitively in their Smart Reality view of the reality around them.
