Augmented Reality Window: Digital reconstruction of a historical and cultural site for smart phones

Due to the city development projects in Seoul, `Pimatgol´ a historical and cultural site has been disappeared and rebuilt. There have been many efforts to reconstruct this kind of historical and cultural sites by using technology. We have reconstructed `Pimatgol´ with digital photos from the past taken by members of the community. Augmented Reality Window (AR Window) is an Augmented Reality application for reconstructing `Pimatgol´ for smart phones. User can see the past scenes over present scenes in their phones through AR Window. User can experience multiple interactions like blowing a breath, wiping with a finger and touching buttons on a phone. We concentrated on how this case affects user´s emotion. AR Window opens a new way for digital reconstruction for smart phones which can raise awareness from the members of the community.
