Abstract
We propose an architecture for multi-user augmented
reality with applications in visualization, presentation and education,
which we call ´Studierstube´. Our system presents three-dimensional
stereoscopic graphics simultaneously to group of users wearing light weight
see-through head mounted displays. The displays do not affect natural
communication and interaction, making working together very effective.
Users see the same spatially aligned model, but can independently control
their viewpoint and different layers of the data to be displayed. Major
field of application serves computer supported cooperative work and
enhances cooperation of experts. The paper presents the client server
software architecture underlying this system and details that must be
addressed to create a high-quality augmented reality setup.
