Abstract

We showcase examples of how 3D and data-intensive augmented reality platforms integrate with Wikipedia, and hope to spark the discussion for more robust integration options for this new generation of software. Specifically, the presenter built ArtformAR, which lets users scan paintings with options to load Wikipedia articles on the painter or painting:
