  • Abstract
    Augmented reality technology can be used in training and learning environments to increase the level of users´ immersion. Taking advantage of this technology a tool has been developed for helping students to re-observe experimental results of groundwater flow in small scale models of embankment dams. It is available to be used any time after experimental sessions at students´ request and without requiring any special human support.
