%C New Jersey, EEUU %A Daniel Gallego Vico %A Iván Martínez Toro %A Joaquín Salvachúa Rodríguez %X The increasing adoption of smartphones by the society has created a new research area in mobile collaboration. This new domain offers an interesting set of possibilities due to the introduction of augmented reality techniques, which provide an enhanced collaboration experience. As this area is relatively immature, there is a lack of conceptualization, and for this reason, this paper proposes a new taxonomy called Collaborative Content Generation Pyramid that classifies the current and future mobile collaborative AR applications in three different levels: Isolated, Social and Live. This classification is based on the architectures related to each level, taking into account the way the AR content is generated and how the collaboration is carried out. Therefore, the principal objective of this definition is to clarify terminology issues and to provide a framework for classifying new researches across this environment. %I IEEE Computer Society Press %T Collaborative Content Generation Architectures for the Mobile Augmented Reality Environment %K augmented reality, architectures, distributed and collaborative AR, AR content generation, AR classification. %L upm7071 %D 2010 %B Proceedings of the 9th IEEE International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality, ISMAR 2010
