The following is a list of augmented reality software including programs for application development, content management, gaming and integrated AR solutions.

Open source

  • Argon, augmented reality browser by Georgia Tech's GVU Center that uses a mix of KML and HTML/JavaScript/CSS to allow developing AR applications; any web content (with appropriate meta-data and properly formatted) can be converted into AR content; as of November 2011, available for iPhone only.[1][2]
  • ARToolKit, an open source (dual-license: GPL, commercial) C-library to create augmented reality applications; was ported to many different languages and platforms like Android, Flash or Silverlight; very widely used in augmented reality related projects.
  • ArUco, a minimal library for augmented reality applications based on OpenCV; licenses: BSD, Linux, Windows.[3]

  • GRATF, open-source (GPLv3) project, which includes C# library for detection, recognition and 3D pose estimation of optical glyphs. The project includes application, which does 2D and 3D augmented reality.[8]
  • mixare (mix Augmented Reality Engine), open-source (GPLv3) augmented reality engine for Android and iPhone; works as an autonomous application and for developing other implementations.[9][10]
  • PTAM, non-commercial use only.[11][12][13]
  • DroidAR, open source (dual-license: GPLv3 or commercial) augmented reality framework for Android, featuring location-based and marker based AR.[14][15][16]
  • GeoAR, open source (Apache 2.0 License) browser for Android, featuring location-based AR and a flexible data source framework.[17]
  • BeyondAR, open source (Apache 2.0 License) augmented reality framework based on geo localisation for Android.[18][19]

Education

  • AR Circuits - an app-based augmented reality electronics kit that uses marker cards to simulate electric components[39]
  • SkyView - an app-based tool for identifying stars, constellations, and satellites[40]
  • Anatomy 4D - creates three-dimensional visualizations of human anatomy using printed target images[41]

End-to-end branded app solutions

Games

Certain gaming devices, such as the EyeToy, PlayStation Eye, Kinect, Nintendo 3DS, PlayStation Portable, PlayStation Vita and some mobile devices, use cameras to augment computer graphics onto live footage. The majority of AR software uses special cards which are read by the device to pinpoint where the graphics will form.

  • AR Games - a pre-loaded app on the Nintendo 3DS gaming console consisting of numerous AR games.
  • A.R. Warriors - a turn based monster fight game for iOS and Android that can be played anywhere thanks to an "User Generated Target" technology.
  • Bravely Default - Features an AR Movie Mode which recognises a series of AR Cards to display short augmented reality introductions to the playable cast and more.
  • Cool Stacks - a game developed by Marxent Labs for Speedway LLC, is an integration of an augmented reality game into a consumer loyalty application.[42]
  • Cybergeneration - a table top role-playing game by R. Talsorian, includes "virtuality", an augmented reality created through v-trodes, cheap, widely available devices people wear at their temples.
  • Dead Space - a video game in which a RIG worn by Isaac Clarke is thoroughly equipped with augmented reality technology, including a navigation system that projects a line along the best route to his destination, and a system that displays images, video and text in front of him. In conjunction with the game, an augmented-reality website called No Known Survivors was released in 2008.
  • E.X. Troopers - a video game with an AR Mode on the Nintendo 3DS version. This recognises AR Cards of characters to display them as well as numerous emotes and attacks when the player presses inputs.
  • Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F - a video game in which an option named AR Mode allows the console to project Hatsune Miku onto a Fiduciary marker. This enable her to sing as an Augmented Reality Vocaloid
  • Hydrophobia - a survival-adventure video game from Dark Energy Digital features the MAVI (Mobile Automated Visual Interface), which is a tool used to enhance environmental geometry among other purposes.
  • Ingress - a location-based mobile game developed by Niantic Labs for iOS and Android devices where two teams (Resistance and Enlightened) battle for control of regions and landmarks.
  • LyteShot - an open source mobile gaming system that uses sensor-based technology to play digital video games, such as first person shooters, in the live action space.[43] It can also use smartglasses for interactive gameplay.
  • Raving Rabbids: Alive & Kicking
  • Spectrek - an augmented reality ghost hunting game.[44]
  • Star Wars Rebels - an augmented reality first-person shooter built by Blippar for the launch of the Star Wars Rebels TV show.[45]
