ANALYSIS OF CO-DESIGN SCENARIOS AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SPATIAL-AUGMENTED REALITY DESIGN PLATFORM

This paper discusses how Spatial Augmented Reality (SAR) can support design sessions in the fields of product, interface and packaging design. We analyse how the scope of a design session and the type of collaboration require different features of the SAR technology. We benchmark a SAR platform under development within the SPARK project (http://spark-project.net/) and state of the art solutions against the proposed classification framework to evaluate the current state of the platform, its limitations and to outline SAR technology requirements for future development possibilities.
