ARETE

The ARETE H2020 project aims to support the pan-European interactive technologies effort both in industry and academia, through the multi-user interactions within Augmented Reality technologies evaluated in educational settings in both professional and private contexts. The authoring tool used within ARETE is based on the Mirage.XR Community Edition, Open Source for authoring and re-enactment of AR learning content to scale down mobile platforms, facilitating the creation of Enterprise Editions, where needed. The aim is the provision of access to the AR pilots developed for the broader community of users within the EU in order to increase the European innovation capacity in AR. Through systematic application of human-centred design approaches within the three pilots of the ARETE project, highly usable, useful and desirable AR technologies and contents will be delivered, leading to a wider uptake and further stimulate their creative usage.
