Multi-User Augmented Photoalbum (S)

Status: Abgeschlossen

The objective of the semester project is to extend the existing augmented photo album with multi-user capabilities and improve the user interface by adding support for interaction with cell-phones for viewing and selecting photos, e.g. sending photos via MMS to a cell-phone.

The existing Augmented Photoalbum allows a user to get additional information and related photos while browsing through prints of his or her digital photos. The photo prints are tagged using Hitachi's RFID µ-chip to identify them and retrieve the meta-information about the photo, for example, the time, date or location the photo was taken.
