What and How
What is it?“RA can be regarded in terms of a continuum relating purely virtual environments to purely real environments” (Industrial Engineering Department of Toronto University, 1994)

Cultural heritage: it’s not a Circus!
It does not provide entertainment, but history, science, information...
What contents?
AR can provides a strong new language to provide “contents” to the peoples

Troubles?
Technology not so much clear...

Troubles?
Fragile content...
… aim to inspire wonder rather than information...

“Customer care…”
How you supply contents
wireless is the way
Customer care...

AR is a working system? Can you effetively learn with AR?
A University of Florida experiment estabilished that there’s not a significative improvement in the keeping of contents between “traditional methods” and AR systems… but...

AR is a working system? Can you effetively learn with AR?
… a difference lies in the quickness to learn… AR allows to learn faster… why?
AR allows a better interaction with the content to learn
