An Interactive Virtual Training System Based on Augmented Reality

Augmented Reality (AR) is a novel interaction way in many fields and applications, and it provides more direct and sensory operation mode for human-machine interaction. Virtual training is becoming an effective approach for knowledge transfers in various fields including agriculture. Augmented Reality can promote virtual training in agriculture. In this paper, we presented an interactive virtual training method and developed a system based on Augmented Reality for agriculture. By use of D'fusion framework-a developing platform based on Augmented Reality, we implemented the presented algorithm and combined relevant agricultural training knowledge. The system gave interactive operations like games with an example of strawberry. The virtual models of strawberry were constructed by real three-dimensional data to ensure the realistic training results. The system provided a convenient interactive training-learning software tool. Finally, the future works in deeply applications are discussed.
