Abstract: The emergence of Augmented Reality (AR) technologies has revolutionized the way information can be presented, offering novel opportunities for data visualization and enhanced interactivity. However, investigating AR concepts outdoors, especially on-the-move, has proven to be a challenging task. Although previous work has examined use cases for using AR for everyday activities in urban environments, most of the contexts explored with people being on-the-move outdoors are in a conceptual stage and these contexts mainly regard AR from a utilitarian perspective. This thesis’ goal is to design and evaluate meaningful AR concepts that intend to assist people while on-the-move in a context sensitive and personalized manner, hoping to empower them by leveraging new forms of interaction while merging the virtual and physical world. I aim to contribute an overview of the design space for AR, while people are on-the-move, provide insights for meaningful AR visualizations, and establish design guidelines for such concepts.
