Museums are the important places of education for preservation and dissemination of human material and intangible heritage. Nowadays, there are many problems in museums such as single display mode and fixed interaction style of collections, which makes cognitive load higher and visiting experience poorer for tourists. Mobile Augmented Reality is a technology that seamlessly integrates virtual information with real environment based on mobile devices. Museum applications based on Mobile Augmented Reality can improve the display richness and meet new visiting needs of the public in the digital era. Firstly, this article introduces the key technologies of Mobile Augmented Reality and its use in museums. Secondly, according to different application functions, classifiable explanations for Mobile Augmented Reality application examples are given. Thirdly, based on the progress in the application of Mobile Augmented Reality in museums at home and abroad, from three dimensions of content, guide, and interaction, designing thought regarding the application of Mobile Augmented Reality for museums is summarized.
