摘要：Scientifc research has become highly intertwined with digital information, however scientifc publication remains based on the static text and fgures of principal articles . This discrepancy constrains complex scientifc data into 2D static fgures, hindering our ability to efectively exchange the complex and extensive information that underlies modern research . Here, we demonstrate how the viewing of digital data can be directly integrated into the existing publication system through both web based and augmented reality (AR) technologies . We additionally provide a framework that makes these capabilities available to the scientifc community. Ultimately, augmenting articles with data can modernize scientifc communication by bridging the gap between the digital basis of present-day research and the natural limitations of printable articles .
