Abstract:
The rapid growth of computing power over the last several years helped in bridging the gap between technology and the traditional pen and paper approach. There is some evidence that Augmented Reality can contribute to raise interest and motivation in students and to effectively support knowledge transfer, since the learning process can be settled within an experimental framework. Designing and implementing an Android application which can solve and plot Mathematical equations in Augmented Reality is a conceptual understanding of Computer Science. It is not provided in daily lectures due to the fact that it is advance knowledge in this field. Augmented Reality is the integration of digital information and user’s environment in real time. Unlike virtual reality, this creates a totally artificial environment. Augmented Reality uses the existing environment and overlays new information on top of it. The purpose of this project is to develop an Android application that utilizes realtime image processing techniques to recognize hand written mathematical equations, solve and plot these equations in Augmented Reality. When the application starts, picture of Mathematical equation is taken. Firstly, application will detect equation in the image taken from camera; this will be done using an OCR engine. After detection of specified equation, it will solve equation and will update the user’s screen with the plot in the correct region with rotation and resizing applied as necessary.
