چکیده

Augmented Reality overlays computer generated images over the real world. This requires precise knowledge of the viewing projection of the headmounted display (HMD) and its position. Most of the previously published methods are complicated or use special equipment for the calibration process. We present a collection of calibration methods usable for fast and easy calibration of camera parameters, object/camera to tracker transformations, and image rectification, which do not need additional instrumentation or complicated procedures. They are applicable for both see-through and video-based HMDs.

Calibration Requirements and Procedures for Augmented Reality

Augmented reality entails the use of models and their associated renderings to supplement information in a real scene. In order for this information to be relevant or meaningful, the models must be positioned and displayed in such a way that they blend into the real world in terms of alignments, perspectives, illuminations, etc. For practical reasons the information necessary to obtain this rea...

Real-time self-calibration of a tracked augmented reality display

PURPOSE: Augmented reality systems have been proposed for image-guided needle interventions but they have not become widely used in clinical practice due to restrictions such as limited portability, low display refresh rates, and tedious calibration procedures. We propose a handheld tablet-based self-calibrating image overlay system. METHODS: A modular handheld augmented reality viewbox was con...

A Fast, Affordable System for Augmented Reality

This paper presents a framework for augmented reality. Head tracking is accomplished using a head-mounted camera, which uses an optical flow based algorithm to track patterns on the ceiling. The position and orientation of the ceiling need not be known a priori, and the necessary calibration, except for radial lens distortion, can be performed on the fly using simple procedures.

Calibration Errors in Augmented Reality: A Practical Study

This paper confronts some theoretical camera models to reality and evaluates the suitability of these models for effective augmented reality (AR). It analyses what level of accuracy can be expected in real situations using a particular camera model and how robust the results are against realistic calibration errors. An experimental protocol is used that consists of taking images of a particular...
