Resumen

Augmented Reality (AR) combines real and virtual objects and makes them coexist in the same space, which highlights reality. This characteristic makes the creation of Augmented Reality applications attractive in several industries, such as medicine, education, entertainment, and so on. With this heyday of Augmented Reality, it is imperative to know what is required to create Augmented Reality applications. This paper explains what Augmented Reality is, defines the tools necessary to create an Augmented Reality application, and presents a software selection methodology. This paper stated that four tools are required to create an Augmented Reality application. First, the Integration tool manages the integration of all the tools. Second, the Virtual Object tool handles the creation of virtual objects. Third, the Coding tool allows to write code, locate its errors, and compile the code. Finally, the fourth tool is the Development tool, which provides functions that other tools do not offer, such as marker recognition. Although four tools are required to create an Augmented Reality application, this does not mean that four software should be used, it may be more or less. The amount of software to use in creating an application is a unique number for each project.
