Corona: Audio Augmented Reality in Historic Sites

Augmented reality is very well suited to convey information in the context of historic sites, as it is possible to integrate such systems in an unobtrusive manner. In this paper we present Corona, an audio augmented reality experience deployed in the historic town hall of Aachen/Germany. We describe the auralization process and the technology used and give an outlook on interesting research questions that need to be investigated.
