The students were also asked to verify and report their obtained values against thosereported in the literature as much as possible. Additionally, the students were also asked toidentify the sources of error in their experimental model that would have resulted in deviations(if any) of their calculated friction coefficient values. Majority of the students (greater than 90%)were able to report values and reflect upon their results and the deviations they observed.Considering that this is not a controlled laboratory experiment where all the equipment andparameters are strictly controlled, the simple experimental models built by the students workedquite well to

Data gathered from real-world testing will besignificantly more informative. We will work with test subjects to ensure that a variety of audioinput mechanisms are trialed in a variety of cases and gather users’ feedback. We believe thiswill lead to the identification of an additional design criteria with regard to ensuring a practical,high-quality audio input.ConclusionsWe identified and presented six major design objectives for an augmented reality
