A mobile augmented reality-based assembly guidance application for LEGO
Usually LEGO structures are created by following an instruction manual in paper or digital form that depicts the LEGO model at different stages of assembly. Some instructions can be very complex and difficult to represent using plain illustrations. Consequently, this makes it difficult to follow and...
