Developing Situated Analytics Applications with RagRug

Explore the first open-source toolkit dedicated to situated analytics in this comprehensive tutorial from IEEE VR 2022. Learn how RagRug extends immersive analytics capabilities by focusing on augmented reality requirements, enabling the creation of visualizations embedded with specific physical objects and reactive to real-world changes. Discover the toolkit's easy-to-learn programming model, which combines Unity game engine, Node-RED framework for IoT, and JavaScript. Understand how RagRug integrates visualizations with referents by modeling spatial and semantic properties and supporting IoT sensors. Gain insights into the toolkit's database back-end system, allowing AR client applications to query relevant data based on user location or task description. Delve into RagRug's visualization capabilities, which build upon immersive analytics state-of-the-art while enabling real-time reactions to data streaming from environmental sensors. Master the art of creating situated visualizations that automatically adapt to new sensor data, focusing on the "what" rather than the "how" of visualization development.
