  • First Online:
Augmented Reality in Education

Abstract

This chapter describes the use of Augmented Reality (AR) technology in chemistry education. The chapter begins with definition analysis, development, component, working principles, steps in making AR media, and supporting applications that are related with AR in education particularly for chemistry teaching and learning process. The proposed AR system consists of three parts: computers, Head Mounted Display (HMD), and markers that use AR toolkit working principles as follows: making AR through Vuforia setting stage, making the target management, managing assets, and running processes. Additionally, Unity application also supports in AR making. There were researches in the field of education especially in chemistry teaching and learning that had used AR technology, such as the concept of crystal structure, molecular geometry, molecular chirality, and molecular hybridization.
