A projection augmented model(PA model) is a type of projection-based haptic augmented reality display. It consists of a real physical model, onto which a computer image is projected to create a realistic looking object. Users can physically touch the surface of a PA model with their bare hands, which has clear experiential value for the types of applications for which they are being developed. 1, record 2, English, - projection%20augmented%20model
