  • Abstract
    In this paper we describe the design and implementation of SquareAR, an Augmented Reality authoring application which enables virtual restoration of public, unexploited, spaces in cities. The aim of this application is to involve the local residents into the decision making process that affects their everyday life in an intuitive and user friendly manner. We also evaluate the application and discuss potential extensions and applications in different contexts.
