Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Teaching materials to understand properly the characteristics of radiation are developed in this research by using AR(Augmented Reality) technique. Image processing technology is used to make more attractive for junior high school students. Three teaching materials were developed. The first and second ones are windows applications, respectively, for understanding the permeability of radiation and a gaming type by using AR(Augmented Reality) technique. The third one is an application to count the number of flight paths of radiation in a cloud chamber by using OpenCV. These materials have been used in some school events and a science lesson in a junior high school. These programs need to be improved more for the use in teaching and training in junior high and elementary schools.
