MARCUS - Mobile Augmented Reality and Context in Urban Scenarios
(details) |
MARCUS is an exchange program with the Human Interface Technologies Laboratory (Christchurch, NZ) and the University of Otago (Otago, NZ). Its aim is to extend the scope of the research work performed in the EU Integrated Project "IPCity" with researchers in New Zealand. The focus of research will be on how mobile devices can create new types of interactive urban experiences. For example, location specific information overlaid on the real world can be used to aid navigation through cities, in outdoor game play, or for providing user supplied comments at certain sites. |

Christian Doppler Laboratory for Handheld Augmented Reality
(details) |
Augmented Reality (AR) combines real and virtual in a single view, putting information right were it belongs - into the real world. AR is still a young research field and hence strongly driven by basic research and experimental methods, while only few successful commercial applications have been deployed. One of the reasons is that past hardware (such as head-mounted displays and Tablet PCs) have not been sufficiently inexpensive and ergonomically satisfactory. Therefore, recent AR research shows a trends towards deploying AR on advanced mobile phones, using the phone camera as video see-through interface for a “magic lens” style of AR. Recent research in the proposer’s group has first the first time established a baseline technology for achieving real-time performance AR on mobile phones, and this development has been meet with great interest from industry. This proposal the logical consequence of this development. It is concerned with extending this research in several directions, in particular making techniques more scalable (sometimes several orders of magnitude), so that realistic real world scenarios interesting for commercial applications can be attacked by industry. Firstly, we want to expand our real-time computer-vision based pose tracking and object recognition techniques. Secondly, we propose to develop realistic AR image synthesis and visualization methods. Thirdly, we suggest an investigation into efficient 3D interaction techniques with and for AR phones. Finally, we suggest the creation of a distributed infrastructure based on Web 2.0 technology for scalable content creation and deployment of geo-referenced AR applications on phones. |
