The advancements in terms of networking, image resolution, computer vision (CV) and mobile cloud computing performances are transforming Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) into a technology which may be put to good use in a variety of everyday contexts. To make this point, we here consider an artisanal craft rooted back into the past, key locksmithing, and show how today MAR capabilities may simplify and ameliorate the performances of such ancient trade. To this aim, we introduce the requirements posed by such craft and present a MAR-based workflow which may be implemented to support and speed its execution. This could also impact the everyday lives of ordinary citizens, since it pose the bases of remote locksmithing activities.

Abstract

The advancements in terms of networking, image resolution, computer vision (CV) and mobile cloud computing performances are transforming Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR) into a technology which may be put to good use in a variety of everyday contexts. To make this point, we here consider an artisanal craft rooted back into the past, key locksmithing, and show how today MAR capabilities may simplify and ameliorate the performances of such ancient trade. To this aim, we introduce the requirements posed by such craft and present a MAR-based workflow which may be implemented to support and speed its execution. This could also impact the everyday lives of ordinary citizens, since it pose the bases of remote locksmithing activities.
