Title:

    Video augmented reality with robust tracking

Presenter(s)/Author(s):



Abstract:


    The goal of our research is to augment a 3D scene with video for a variety of applications, including entertainment and advertisement. In an entertainment application we could add video on to a 3D games environment to both add realism and allow players to pick up clues from video clips. For advertisement, we could add videos of popular soft drinks into a movie; for example, a video advertisement could be added on the side of a building as a helicopter flies by. To make video augmented reality possible, and robust, we need to address several issues; camera registration and rendering, tracking of certain feature planes (e.g., the side of a building or the top of a roof), integrating video into a 3D scene, and invariance to illumination variations, being some important ones.
