Abstract :
In this paper, we present the VREditor, an easy-to-use authoring tool for annotating a scene with augmented reality features (images, videos, animations, sounds, and texts). The output of this editor is the creation of an augmented reality world. The user lives in this generated virtual world and he can choose according to his preferences (for instance, artistic, political, cultural, military data, etc.), which augmented reality features he desires to be presented to him, having as a result to live an immersive experience virtually.
