The “Smart Garden” System using Augmented Reality

Abstract The goal of this research is to build an advanced gardening system called “Smart Garden”. The goal of this research is to build an advanced gardening system called “Smart Garden”. The Smart Garden support beginners in farming operations, such as home gardeners. The objectives of this paper are to develop a support system of the Smart Garden which can 1) visualize guidance of farming operations using CGs and overlay them on a field where the operator is working, and 2) record the operator's positions and viewpoints during their operations.
