Introduction
ARGUI
is a window system for ARToolkit based Augmented Reality applications
under Windows. It allows for easy creation of interactive two-dimensional
interfaces that are registered in 3D. These interfaces are called
arObjects and can be triggered with a pointer-device and
a keyboard. The handling is similar to an X11 window system as the
arObject under the pointer is automatically activated and gets all
input. Additionally, the user can focus an arObject permanently and
zoom it from the marker position to fullscreen.
