It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Allen, M., Regenbrecht, H. and Abbott, M. (2011): Smart-phone augmented reality for public participation in urban planning. In: Proceedings of the 2011 Australian Computer-Human Interaction Conference 2011. pp. 11-20.

We investigate smart-phone based augmented reality architecture as a tool for aiding public participation in urban planning. A smart-phone prototype system was developed which showed 3D virtual representations of proposed architectural designs visualised on top of existing real-world architecture, with an appropriate interface to accommodate user actions and basic feedback. Members of the public participated in a user study where they used the prototype system as part of a simulated urban planning event. The prototype system demonstrated a new application of augmented reality architecture and an accessible way for members of the public to participate in urban planning projects.
