作者:

Highlights:

• A first empirical study that examines older adults' interaction with augmented reality.

• Older adults did not show relative performance deficits in using AR.

• No learning effect was found for AR for both older and younger participants.

• Older adults expressed a high level of appreciation and satisfaction from the AR application.

• Older adults preferred the AR application over a similar, non-AR application.
