Augmented reality (AR) takes natural user input (NUI), such as gestures, voice, and eye
gaze, and produces digital visual overlays on top of reality seen by a user. Today, multiple
shipping AR applications exist, most notably titles for the Microsoft Kinect and smartphone
applications such as Layar, Wikitude, and Junaio. Despite this activity, little attention has

Abstract
Augmented reality (AR) takes natural user input (NUI), such as gestures, voice, and eye gaze, and produces digital visual overlays on top of reality seen by a user. Today, multiple shipping AR applications exist, most notably titles for the Microsoft Kinect and smartphone applications such as Layar, Wikitude, and Junaio. Despite this activity, little attention has been paid to operating system support for AR applications. Instead, each AR application today does its own sensing and rendering, with the help of user-level libraries like OpenCV or the Microsoft Kinect SDK.
