Development of Mobile-Based Augmented Reality Colouring for Preschool Learning

Coloring activity with pens and paper is a natural activity and an important experience for children to practice and express their creative skills. To gain interest and attention of kids making these creative activities are the main challenge faced by teachers and parents. By developing augmented reality coloring to solve this problem require us to design a mobile application with suitable coloring book contents designed suit for kids. This work aims to provide guidelines developing interactive coloring book with augmented reality for kids that integrate with our previous technique. Wonderful Augmented Reality and Arts (wARna) is our previous fast texturing technique as the main core of the framework application that interactively play colored 2D coloring book page by visualizing it in 3D on a user's view of the real world. This work proposed a framework with suitable specification in creation of content so it reusable to create new coloring content that integrated with a mobile application and highlighting issues that need to be solved.
