Abstract Creating entertaining and educational books not only requires providing visually stimulating content but also means for students to interact, create, and express themselves. We present a new type of mixed-reality book experience, which augments an educational coloring book with usergenerated three dimensional content. In particular, we introduce a new technique to engage users in actively creating AR book content in real time using a coloring book metaphor. In this first prototype, users can color the pages of the book, and the system automatically recognizes the pages and the various colors used by the users, and directly maps the colored end results to virtual pop-up scenes and 3D models. Our system is based on natural feature tracking and image processing techniques that can be easily exploited for other AR publishing applications.
