Abstract

Marker-based mobile AR is widely used in playful games that combine digital content with shared physical objects. While prior research shows that mobile AR games can enable co-located collaboration, little is known about how playful markers within games themselves scaffold cooperative action. We examine how experts envision using playful markers for collaboration after hands-on interaction with a marker-based AR game prototype. Survey responses point to three key ideas: markers as shared focal points, collaboration that develops through play, and a preference for small, closely coordinated groups.
