Cornwall A-Book is an augmented book app that is working with the world’s first augmented travel guidebook “Cornwall & The Isles of Scilly”. An augmented book or “a-book” is a printed book that has been enhanced in a standardised way with additional content that you can view or listen to while reading.
Cornwall A-Book is not an production ready app, it is an experimental demo app as part of an exciting research project ‘Next Generation Paper’, led by academics at the University of Surrey, UK. You can find more information about this project from www.nextgenerationpaper.info
Cornwall A-Book allows you to access additional augmented content by identifying which page you are reading via visual recognition, voice recognition, and/or manual page entry. The app will let you choose what content from that page you would like to interact with. It is clever, user friendly, and free of charge.
