Combining Augmented Reality and Sentient Computing

INTRODUCTION Augmented Reality (AR) is an augmentation of human perception (visual, tactile or olfactory) with extra and otherwise undetectable information. Strict interpretations of AR demand that rendered augmentations, such as superimposed 3D graphics, are registered in 3D and updated at highly interactive rates such that users perceive the augmentation to be indistinguishable from real obje...

Augmented Reality Combining Haptics and Vision

Recently, haptic devices have been successfully incorporated into the human-computer interaction model. However, a drawback common to almost all haptic systems is that the user must be attached to the haptic device at all times, even though force feedback is not always being rendered. This constant contact hinders perception of the virtual environment, primarily because it prevents the user fro...

Handheld Geospatial Augmented Reality using Urban 3D Models

Handheld outdoor augmented reality requires georeferenced models of the environment to present world-registered overlays to a mobile user. We present a pipeline for managing such models that cover a wide urban area. To this aim, a geospatial database must be created, maintained and delivered to the mobile user.
