Our PhD candidate Alla Vovk created a reading list with textbooks for those interested to learn more about Augmented Reality and related topics.
Finally did something that was planning for a very long time — created an Augmented Reality Reading List. As you may know, I’m researching Spatial Interfaces and interaction in AR and here is something that I’ve been reading for all these PhD years. The list has some titles that would be quite a good choice for an absolute beginner, and a selection of books about cognition, perception and spatial memory for a deeper understanding of the topic (my favorite part) — Alla Vovk
