Application and evaluation of augmented reality user interface to a card game “Scopa”

We propose an augmented reality application system for playing Scopa. The idea of this application is that visual augmentation by means of the AR method will help a Scopa beginner play games, learn rules from his/her game experiences under the support of the system, and thus become an experienced player who can play without any support. The system captures cards in the player's view via a camera, recognizes the current state, and visually augments cards to guide the user perform appropriate actions (e.g., discard an unwanted card). Our implementation and evaluation of the system are reported in this paper.
