title	Analysis of a Mixed Reality Display for Outdoor and Multi-User Implementation
source	Digitizing Architecture: Formalization and Content [4th International Conference Proceedings of the Arab Society for Computer Aided Architectural Design (ASCAAD 2009) / ISBN 978-99901-06-77-0], Manama (Kingdom of Bahrain), 11-12 May 2009, pp. 323-333
summary	This research describes a tool which can be used outdoors instead of a paper medium by a group of people to facilitate city tour guiding or design studies. First, the problems of the device and software which constitute the developed outdoor type MR (Mixed Reality) system were considered. Problems regarding the display, sensor, and composition with video and 3DCG images were clarified. In addition, taking account of the problem that the display is dark outdoors, the luminosity of a number of displays was measured in a dark room and outdoors. In addition to the dark room contrast ratio, the importance of ambient contrast was highlighted through the experiment.

title	From Digital Heritage Documentation to 3D Virtual Reconstruction and Recreation for Heritage Promotion and Reinterpretation: The Case of the iHeritage Project
source	C+++: Computation, Culture, and Context – Proceedings of the 11th International Conference of the Arab Society for Computation in Architecture, Art and Design (ASCAAD), University of Petra, Amman, Jordan [Hybrid Conference] 7-9 November 2023, pp. 7-23.
summary	In the last two decades, the digital age Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) development and concerns combined with rapid technology have permitted the dissemination of different digital applications (including digital documentation, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR), digital gaming, and holograms etc.) oriented toward past, present and future communication using digital three-dimensional audio-visual content. Today, we must acknowledge that 3D virtual 3D reconstruction and recreation has become an established way to build, understand, reinterpret, and promote Cultural Heritage (CH). The virtual 3D reconstruction world and multimedia industry are often considered potential marketing channels for World Heritage Sites (WHS) and heritage tourism. 3D digital/virtual reconstruction merges and embodies subjectivity in one process, playing an attractive role in heritage tourism destinations and creating image experiences, providing the first enjoyable interpretation and information for most audiences. Based on the EU-funded iHERITAGE project ICT Mediterranean platform for the UNESCO CH, this paper attempts to examine some insights into constructing the optimistic image of heritage promotion and tourism in the context of CH as it flows through both physical and virtual spaces to give a glimpse of the future of virtual reconstruction. It illustrates the development of the concepts and practice, challenges and opportunities, advantages and disadvantages, and the negative and the positive sides of the related issues of only 3D digital reconstructions, and some issues concerning the ethics based on the International Chartres and Conventions mainly in the field of scientific visualisation, such as the London Charter (2009) and Seville Principles (2011). Finally, as a practical dimension, it presents some representative examples of 3D digital/virtual reconstruction of characteristic monuments of the WHS of Nabataean Petra in Jordan for the first time.

title	Outdoor mobile augmented reality for past and future on-site architectural visualizations
source	T. Tidafi and T. Dorta (eds) Joining Languages, Cultures and Visions: CAADFutures 2009, PUM, 2009, pp. 557- 571
summary	Mobile devices have become widely used in outdoors on-the-move applications. Our research aims at developing a system which allows users to visualize the virtual buildings, streets, historic sites, landscapes or cityscapes (in the past or future) which are rendered seamlessly with the current actual scene captured by the camera (called Augmented Reality), and interactively exploring the virtual scene in real-time while the user is moving. We use the camera PDA, the GPS receiver and the gyroscope to track the mobile device’s position and orientation for virtual scene rendering. This article documents the issues regarding accurate alignment, tracking, errors and limitations with mobile devices and presents our solutions generated so far for the research in progress.

title	Reusable Augmented Concrete Casting System - Accessible method for formwork manufacturing through holographic guidance
source	Pak, B, Wurzer, G and Stouffs, R (eds.), Co-creating the Future: Inclusion in and through Design - Proceedings of the 40th Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2022) - Volume 1, Ghent, 13-16 September 2022, pp. 371–380

summary	Reinforced concrete has been one of the essential materials for modern architecture for the last hundred years. Its use is entirely global, having been adopted by all cultures and styles since its invention in the late 19th century. Although its value is excellent due to its low cost, durability and adaptability, its environmental impact is significant, being, in fact, one of the most polluting industries in the world (Babor et al. 2009). This experimental project will research a more sustainable use of concrete, exploring a new form of reusable concrete formwork that will ideally reduce the CO2 footprint by removing wood waste in the casting process and replacing it with adaptable metal components. The modular part-based system for the concrete casting also attempts to simplify one of the current complexities for concrete construction, the Skilled-Labour shortage. (Yusoff et al. 2021). To mitigate this problem, the project also proposes using an Augmented Assembly logic for the casting parts to guide the ensemble and dismantle the formwork through an optimised algorithmic logic. The use of Augmented Reality as a replacement for traditional paper instructions will facilitate access to more workers to this construction art and potentially improve access to optimised use of concrete in developing communities with restricted building technological resources.

title	MIXED REALITIES: Framing Mixed Realities
source	Mixed Reality In Architecture, Design, And Construction, Wang, Xiangyu; Schnabel, Marc Aurel (Eds.) 2009, XIV, ISBN: 978-1-4020-9087-5, pp. 3-11
summary	New ‘realities’ are emerging. Novel concepts such as Mixed Reality, Augmented Reality and Augmented Virtuality and their supporting technologies influence architecture, design and construction. These realities replace or merge with the normal physical world and they can be tailored to enhance comprehension for specific design and construction activities. The various realms, their research and applications and their relevance to the field are presented and critically reflected upon. Finally the Reality-Virtuality Continuum is analysed regarding its engagement, abstraction and information overlay.

title	Interplay Of Domains: New Dimensions of Design Learning in Mixed Realities
source	Mixed Reality In Architecture, Design, And Construction, Wang, Xiangyu; Schnabel, Marc Aurel (Eds.) 2009, XIV, ISBN: 978-1-4020-9087-5, pp. 219-226
summary	There is a distance between the idea of a design in the imagination and its representation, communication and realisation. Architects use a variety of tools to bridge this gap. Each tool places different demands on the designer and each, through inherent characteristics and affordances, introduces reinterpretations of the design idea, thus imposing a divergence between the idea and the expression of the idea. Design is an activity that is greatly complex, and influenced by numerous factors. Most researchers of Mixed Realities (MRs) have focused on their use as presentation or simulation environments. It has been suggested that MR can empower designers to express, explore and convey their imagination more easily. For these reasons the very different nature of MR with its unique properties may allow architects and learners to create designs that other instruments do not offer. There has been inadequate exploration.

title	Methodology for Ideation of Interaction Design
source	Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / Yunlin (Taiwan) 22-25 April 2009, pp. 371-380
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2009.371
summary	This paper explores new methodology, tools, and techniques for ideation of interaction design. On one hand, our work takes a mixed approach to developing design methodology by integrating usability tests and ethnographic studies in the ideation process. On the other hand, parallel design with user participation is attempted to reduce interactive design life cycle. An interaction design example is drawn from i-Awn project, an activity-coordination and reminding system in smart homes. This example demonstrates our mixed approach and shows how a new methodology is developed for validating the quality of user experience in a critical process of designing. The objective is to get the right interaction and the interaction right, provoking new ways of thinking about usability evaluation in the ideation process. The social, cultural and emotional uses of interactive systems in smart homes are discussed.

title	Spatial Faithful Display Groupware For Remote Design Collaboration
source	T. Tidafi and T. Dorta (eds) Joining Languages Cultures and Visions: CAADFutures 2009 CD-Rom
summary	Traditional remote collaboration technologies and platforms are found restrained and cumbersome for supporting geographically dispersed design activities. Based on Single Display Groupware (SDG) (Stewart, Bederson, and Druin, 1999) and Mixed Presence Groupware (MPG) (Tang, Boyle, Greenberg, 2004), a Spatial Faithful Groupware is presented in this paper to address some issues in remote collaboration. This paper discusses some of these limitations and argues how these limitations could possibly impair efficient communication among designers.
