Abstract
This paper provides a brief introduction to outdoor AR and the necessary technologies, and discusses its use as a new medium for exploring historic sites. We describe how the students in an AR Design class transform the Historic Oakland Cemetery in Atlanta into a platform that represents multiple points in southern history, including the American civil war. We present example projects from the most recent semester class, and some observations on designing AR experiences for historic sites.
