This thesis presents a mobile Collaborative Augmented Reality application for music composition. The main focus of this implementation is to enable the remote collaboration of users on an Augmented Reality environment. This thesis acts a prototype for remote collaboration. Users are able to cooperate from anywhere in the world in order to interact with a same virtual collaboration space while on different physical areas. This application was developed using the Unity3D platform for the development of 3D interactive applications, as well as, the required programming tools in order to achieve a mobile Collaborative AR experience based on the AR Foundation API. AR features such as, plane detection, precise 3D model spawning, device tracking etc were implemented. More over, in order to implement a stable connection between the different users and to ensure a smooth collaboration, the Photon Unity Networking (PUN) was imported and further developed. As a result, we managed to establish a much needed real-time positional synchronization between the user's AR models and interfaces. By combining music composition and collaboration through Augmented Reality, we propose an innovative way to create a music piece, that includes the physical surrounding of the users which is digitally enhanced and enables the collaborative aspect of Augmented Reality.
