ARTextiles: Promoting Social Interactions Around Personal Interests Through Augmented Reality.

Our co-located social relationships are changing with the adoption of new technologies. Augmented Reality (AR) performed on clothing can bridge the gap between our social media and our face-to-face interactions. We propose a new system composed of an online application that generates an artistic and representative social design for the user's clothing based on personal interests from a social network. We also present an AR application to explore this social design and enhance face-to-face interactions and connections between acquaintances or strangers.
