Invariant-Based Augmented Reality on Mobile Phones

Overview of Performance and Accuracy of Smartphone Sensors in Augmented Reality Applications

Since incorrect excavations have resulted in extensive and irreparable financial and physical losses, therefore different drillings require having accurate information about the status of the infrastructures. Ubiquitous Geospatial Information System (UBGIS) as a new generation of Geospatial Information System (GIS) can be a good solution to avoid such problems.  Augmented Reality (AR) is the ne...

Mobile Phone Based Augmented Reality

Mobile phones are evolving into the ideal platform for augmented reality (AR). In this chapter, we describe how augmented reality applications can be developed for mobile phones and the interaction metaphors that are ideally suited for this platform. Several sample applications are described which explore different interaction techniques. User study results show that moving the phone to interac...

Sensor-Aware Recognition and Tracking for Wide-Area Augmented Reality on Mobile Phones

Wide-area registration in outdoor environments on mobile phones is a challenging task in mobile augmented reality fields. We present a sensor-aware large-scale outdoor augmented reality system for recognition and tracking on mobile phones. GPS and gravity information is used to improve the VLAD performance for recognition. A kind of sensor-aware VLAD algorithm, which is self-adaptive to differe...

On the Implementation of Servers for Large Scale CAR Systems based on Mobile Phones

Collaborative Augmented Reality (CAR) systems allow multiple users to share a real world environment including computer-generated images in real time. The hardware features of most current mobile phones include wireless network capabilities that offer a natural platform for CAR systems. However, the potential number of clients in CAR systems based on mobile phones is much larger than on CAR sys...
