Abstract
La realidad aumentada (ra) está llamada a jugar un papel creciente en todo tipo de
experiencias turísticas, ya que cada vez están más asociadas al uso de dispositivos móviles. Por el
momento, la mayoría de los proyectos de implantación de ra se han centrado en equipamientos
culturales y entornos urbanos. Paradójicamente, la ra ha tenido escaso despliegue en el segmento
del turismo rural, a pesar de que sus recursos suelen precisar de interpretación en visitas autónomas. mediante un estudio cualitativo basado en entrevistas semi-estructuradas a un conjunto de expertos, se identifican y analizan los factores que están constriñendo el desarrollo de la ra en los destinos
turísticos rurales. las barreras se agrupan en tres bloques: tecnología, masa crítica de demanda y
capacidades de las organizaciones del destino. finalmente se apuntan unas líneas de actuación para
la política turística y la gestión empresarial

The implementation of ar projects has focused so far on cultural institutions and urban environments. Paradoxically, ar has had little deployment in the rural tourism segment, although such resources might require interpretation in self-guided visits. a qualitative study based on semi-structured interviews was conducted. a panel of experts was used to identify the factors that are constraining the development of ar in rural tourist destinations. The barriers are grouped into three blocks: technology, critical mass of demand and capabilities of the organizations of the destination. finally, some lines of action for tourism policy and business management are presented
