Abstract
The augmented reality concept Augit was designed to enable artists and amateurs to draw and upload three-dimensional images and objects into a virtual augmented reality.
The real world is to be enriched by the users' virtual works, which can also be colored, moved and scaled on its site in the physical environment.
Once a work has been uploaded to the Augit network and linked to a geo-location, users are able to visit the piece in person, comment on it, rate it and add it to their favorites. If the original contributor allows it, it should even be possible for third parties to add to a work, further enhancing the network experience.
