Augmented Reality in a Smart Classroom—Case Study: SaCI

In this paper, we propose the utilization of augmented reality (AR) in a smart classroom (SaCI). The architecture of a SaCI has been proposed in a previous work, based on the paradigm of multi-agent systems. In this paper, we propose an agent that provides services of AR to display and design, among other things, augmented scenarios. In addition, we define an experimental real environment in SaCI to evaluate the utilization and impact of AR in it. The results are promising, since the criteria of motivation, learning curve, and memorization of the students are substantially improved in the experimental group.
