INTEGRATED NAVIGATION OF CAMERAS FOR AUGMENTED REALITY

Integrated Navigation of Cameras for Augmented Reality

In augmented reality, the position and orientation of the camera must be estimated very accurately. This paper will propose a filtering approach, similar to integrated navigation in aircraft, which is based on inertial measurements as primary sensor on which dead-reckoning can be based, and features in the image as supporting information to stabilize the dead-reckoning. The image features are c...

Augmented Reality in Road Navigation

Embedded Virtual Views for Augmented Reality Navigation

In this paper, we present virtual embedded views used for turnbased pedestrian navigation in Augmented Reality (AR). Embedded views allow users to see around occluding structures and at the same time seamlessly integrate the augmented navigation aid into the otherwise occluded view. Users get a preview on upcoming route changes, without the need to consult an additional map view. We compare emb...

A Survey of Augmented Reality Navigation

Navigation has been a popular area of research in both academia and industry. Combined with maps, and different localization technologies, navigation systems have become robust and more usable. By combining navigation with augmented reality, it can be improved further to become realistic and user friendly. This paper surveys existing researches carried out in this area, describes existing techn...

Integrated Medical Workflow for Augmented Reality Applications

Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) have the potential to improve surgical interventions and image-guided therapy by providing clinicians with interactive three-dimensional visualizations in all phases of treatment. However, experimental AR research applications typically focus on a single medical procedure and do not attempt to cover the whole clinical workflow from preoperative to...
